  • Using Human-centered Design to Increase Inclusivity and Engagement on Project Teams

    Project Management Institute

    Oftentimes, when employees hear the term "diversity, equity and inclusion," they immediately think it is solely the responsibility of human resources. It's not. As project managers and members of PMI, we strive to be good shepherds of the resources in our care - including the diverse group of people on our teams. To do this, and to realize the greatest benefit for our projects, we need to ensure our teammates feel safe to bring their unique experiences and best self to their work. By…

    Oftentimes, when employees hear the term "diversity, equity and inclusion," they immediately think it is solely the responsibility of human resources. It's not. As project managers and members of PMI, we strive to be good shepherds of the resources in our care - including the diverse group of people on our teams. To do this, and to realize the greatest benefit for our projects, we need to ensure our teammates feel safe to bring their unique experiences and best self to their work. By incorporating human-centered design /design thinking methodologies into your leadership toolkit, you will be able to lower some structural barriers to success. Through a mix of storytelling, statistics, and practical activities, this webinar will guide you to becoming a more aware team leader so you can move beyond having a diverse team and into having a high - functioning, engaged and inclusive one.

    Purpose: The Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) tasked a rapid response research team (RRRT) to develop priorities to increase diversity, equity, and inclusivity in oncology clinical care and workforce development.

    Methods: An RRRT of experts in health disparities conducted a rapid review of the literature, consulted with oncology nurse leaders and disparities researchers, and reviewed priorities from funding agencies.

    Results: Significant gaps in the current oncology disparities literature were identified and used to inform priority areas for future research practice and workforce development in oncology nursing.

    Synthesis: This is the second article in a two-part series that presents findings on structural racism and health inequities in oncology nursing. In the first article, three priority areas for oncology nursing research were presented. In this article, strategies to improve diversity, equity, and inclusivity in clinical practice and the oncology workforce are described.

    Implications for Research: Recommendations are presented to inform research, clinical, administrative, and academic oncology nursing settings on increasing diversity, equity, and inclusivity and deconstructing structural racism.

  • A Primer on Invisible Minorities; DE&I; and the Impact of Discrimination on Project Managers

    ProjectManagement.com

    Businesses are increasingly focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) – realizing that multiple perspectives can be more profitable when building products and services. However, DEI initiatives often translate to addressing the needs of marginalized groups whose members are immediately identifiable while underserving invisible groups like LGBTQ+, religions, people with mental health issues &/or disabilities, to name just a few. By continuing to disenfranchise these groups, companies are…

    Businesses are increasingly focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) – realizing that multiple perspectives can be more profitable when building products and services. However, DEI initiatives often translate to addressing the needs of marginalized groups whose members are immediately identifiable while underserving invisible groups like LGBTQ+, religions, people with mental health issues &/or disabilities, to name just a few. By continuing to disenfranchise these groups, companies are unwittingly lowering productivity and potentially losing valuable human resources. Through a mix of storytelling, statistics, and practicing human-centered design methodologies, webinar attendees will build understanding of the experiences of visible and invisible marginalized groups then discuss creating actionable plans for making micro-cultures of inclusion – even if it’s just on their team or in their cubicle!

  • Coaching | Matt Daley

    Matt's journey through coaching with me is a testament to the transformative power of personal development and strategic guidance. When Matt first approached coaching, he was entangled in a web of anxiety and dissatisfaction stemming from various aspects of his life, including his new job, family dynamics, volunteer work, and concerns about his future. It was a period marked by a deep sense of uncertainty and fear, overshadowing his potential for growth and fulfillment.

    Over six months…

    Matt's journey through coaching with me is a testament to the transformative power of personal development and strategic guidance. When Matt first approached coaching, he was entangled in a web of anxiety and dissatisfaction stemming from various aspects of his life, including his new job, family dynamics, volunteer work, and concerns about his future. It was a period marked by a deep sense of uncertainty and fear, overshadowing his potential for growth and fulfillment.

    Over six months, Matt and I embarked on a collaborative journey, employing a tailored blend of design thinking activities, Positive Intelligence training, and Co-Active coaching techniques. Our objective was clear: to transition Matt's mindset from one dominated by scarcity and fear to one characterized by abundance and curiosity. This shift was not about denying the reality of his challenges but about reframing his perspective to see beyond immediate obstacles and recognize the wealth of possibilities around him.

    Through dedicated sessions, Matt began to harness the power of his own mindset, learning to identify and seize opportunities that previously went unnoticed. This newfound outlook enabled him to adopt a leadership style that was not only innovative but also inspiring. He cultivated a team that mirrored his risk-taking and fearless approach, transforming them into a group of future leaders within his organization. This change did not go unnoticed; other managers began seeking Matt's advice, eager to replicate his success and foster a similar culture within their teams.

    The culmination of our work together marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Matt. Empowered by his personal and professional growth, he decided to further his education and gain practical experience by job shadowing a colleague in a role he aspires to achieve in the coming years. This decision reflects Matt's commitment to continuous learning and his desire to expand his horizons.
