About this webinar

Microaggressions are brief, everyday indignities — verbal, behavioral or environmental, intentional or not. Like paper cuts to the human spirit, they are quick and subtle, but the sting lingers. Left unaddressed, they erode working relationships and performance.

Responding well takes a shift in perspective: sitting with discomfort, calming your own reactions, and getting curious about other people’s experiences. Nyah Lynn Edwards examines how microaggressions show up at work and uses real-life scenarios to practice responses that are productive and authentic.

Intention vs. impact — separating the two to open the door to productive dialogue and connection.

Shift your perspective — sitting with discomfort, calming your own emotions and getting curious about others’ experiences.
