Course Description

Leaders within the field behavior analysis are increasingly called to affirm, recognize and validate the cultural experiences of a diverse workforce and clientele, as one of many ways to produce positive outcomes (Campos-Moreira L. D., Cummings, Grumbach, Williams, & Hooks, 2020). Embracing a culturally responsive leadership framework can both strengthen and expand a leader's capacity to meet the robust needs of those they serve (Campos-Moreira L. D., Cummings, Grumbach, Williams, & Hooks, 2020). During this continuing education event Dr. Cirincione-Ulezi will discuss and share how leaders can use values identification, compassion, and self-reflection, as means to both develop and express culturally humble and responsive leadership.
