Workshop Description
Are you optimizing the diversity within your mental health workforce? Is a shifting team or organizational make up posing new leadership challenges? Almost all mental health service organizations within the U.S are addressing workforce diversity to ensure that their services are relevant and appropriate for the populations they serve. As the mental health workforce diversifies, the culture of organizations is infused with new values, behaviors, attitudes, and practices. Leaders and managers have opportunities to incorporate diverse cultural perspectives into staff roles and responsibilities but may not understand the consequences of embracing and institutionalizing diverse perspectives. This 1.5 day workshop will focus on the adaptive work that leadership staff can leverage to optimize diverse perspectives within agency teams, or the broader workforce. Together, we will build strategies to address the challenges and opportunities of our current-day organizations.
