Elephant in the Room- Racial Equity Conversations for the Workplace

April 12, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Free

Spaceworks Alum Christina Vega with Blue Cactus Press brings us together with author and owner of Rebel Firm, Philip Jacobs. Philip will lead a discussion around his new book Elephant in the Room: A business parable about race and equity conversations in the workplace.

 

Bio: Philip “Sharp Skills” Jacobs inspires and motivates organizations, large and small, to push past their comfort zones in conversations about race, and gives them effective strategies and tools to advance racial equity in their workplaces. He was instrumental in getting people and organizations to “talk about race” before that concept became popular (after the murder of George Floyd). Philip is the author of Elephant in the Room: A business parable about race and equity conversations in the workplace. He is an Inglewood, CA native who now lives in Tacoma, WA.
