Navigating Societal Polarization
In an era of deep societal polarization, leaders are increasingly called upon to navigate conflict with clarity, compassion, and courage. This talk explores the personal and organizational competencies needed to manage tension, with inclusion, equity, and humanity in mind. Drawing from over a decade of experience in global leadership and DEI strategy, Erin reflects on the root causes of polarization today—including misinformation, erosion of trust, and unhealed trauma—and offers insights for cultivating self-awareness, emotional literacy, and trauma-informed leadership.
