Guest Speaker: Cathy Royal - "Understanding of power and privilege as it relates to national and global dynamics"

 The session will address issues social justice, inclusion and global dynamics. The interactive session will focus on what are the important issues OD consultants are being "called to address" as we develop or continue our practice in rapidly changing and shifting social dynamics.
A key factor to consider in OD in the 21st century is what is the role of social justice in the field? What can we as OD practitioners contribute to creating open and equitable societies and systems?
