What makes diversity and inclusion—seemingly so simple—also so complicated and difficult to achieve? Truly bringing inclusion to life can sometimes feel quite challenging, especially when there seem to be forces pulling in many directions, and various inherent challenges and dilemmas involved in working with and across differences. In this session, we will explore a paradoxical approach for thinking about and engaging with inclusion challenges, and we will examine three key paradoxes of inclusion—those involving self-expression and identity, boundaries and norms, and safety and comfort. We will also consider their implications for engaging and building collective capacity for DEI and for benefiting from the power of inclusion.
