Case Study of a Meeting Facilitation — When Meetings Get Heated
In this example, a client hired Stamey Street to conduct a racial equity skills training and facilitate a staff discussion about its application in an organization’s everyday work. In the pre-session planning, our consultant team recognized racialized tensions and put together a plan to address it. The case study includes the situation, the adaptive challenge facing us and our client, the solution, how we responded in real time, and the lessons learned.
What you can expect from our workshops
Intergrate learning into your everyday work.
Our interactive workshops and trainings build the skills, understanding, and momentum your team needs to make equity real inside your organization. Workshops are best utilized when driven by a clear purpose. We offer in person and virtual options. We also offer self-directed, digital courses as needed for large organizations (500+). At Stamey Street, we believe that attending a workshop is not an end goal. Instead, it is one strategy that gives your staff the tools to do their work more effectively, efficiently and equitably.
