Course Details:
This 90-minute, on-demand webinar, originally presented to the ICF Career Coaching Community of Practice, focuses on understanding diversity, equity, and inclusion in career coaching.
The presenters will review terminology, concepts, and a case study related to equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) using the lens of career interventions for BIPOC communities in West Coast Turtle Island.
The presenters will share their journey to create a career development program that addresses the unique challenges that they both experienced as Black women navigating careers and workspaces within Canada, as well as the continued barriers they observed within their community.
Participants will have an opportunity to apply EDI to a career coaching context and explore how identity, privilege, and discrimination can impact both expectations and outcomes when it comes to career exploration and development.
Through this session, there will be opportunities to discuss how applying a decolonialized lens and interventions can provide an inclusive approach to your career coaching practice.
