Erica here. Welcome to our first monthly digest for Two Piers as we close out July. The theme we focused on this past month was Authenticity. Coming out of LGBTQ+ Pride Month in June (literally no pun intended) and entering Disability Pride Month and Minority Mental Health Awareness Month in July, this felt like a powerful theme to help explore some of the challenges facing many individuals in the workplace, regardless of which intersection of identities we sit at. 

In addition to our regular fare this month, we’re also announcing the launch of a three-week intensive being offered this October called “Reclaiming the Floor: How to Get Your Voice Heard and Handle the Interrupters.” 📣 Registration is open, and we’re excited! 🎉 More information below…

Things you are likely to find in our once-a-month communications:

• Coaches Corner 💡 - a handful of practical workplace insights and wisdom distilled from our current focus areas (for example, the upcoming July email discusses authenticity in the workplace)

• DEIBJ Digest 🗞 - a highlight of what’s going on in the world of diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and justice, including awareness days, weeks, or months to have on your radar

• What’s On Tap🚰 - a quick rundown of what we’ve got on offer, including recently published articles, podcast episodes, and upcoming events or opportunities. 

• What We’re Reading 📚 - a curated list of the top books, articles, and insightful threads focused on making the workplace more welcoming and effective for all
