Brave Conversations Facilitator Master Class
The skill of facilitating sensitive and nuanced conversations around race is part art and part science. A competent facilitator must understand foundational principles of communication, psychology, and human behavior. Moreover, the facilitator must facilitate with their ears, heart, and mind.
The facilitator of conversations around race must understand that their job is to create an environment of psychological safety and they must always put the group first.
