Shared Learning Series
As mission-driven organizations, we can’t create change without pausing to ask big philosophical questions. How can we broaden our perspective to reinvent systems we created? How can we build community around common interests to address unmet needs in our sector? How can we shift our current mindset to envision how housing, services and supports might look in 10 or 20 years?
About Shared Learning
Unlike traditional education experiences, LeadingAge’s shared learning series are designed to be highly interactive, collaborative gatherings in which guest speakers offer new ideas/perspective and all participants contribute to the learning. The goal of shared learning is to gain, build, and exchange ideas through a process of open dialogue and collective exploration—to really wrestle in the grey areas and engage in generative conversations.
Virtual Series
LeadingAge currently offers two shared learning programs. Both consist of a series of virtual sessions where a small group of LeadingAge members deep dive into critical topics with experienced subject-matter experts and engage in peer-to-peer learning and self-reflection.
Embracing Dementia Inclusion
Embracing Dementia Inclusion is designed to help LeadingAge members take steps toward more integrated settings for people living with dementia while thoughtfully considering barriers and exploring person-directed approaches to overcoming challenges.
Committing to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)
Committing to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is designed to help LeadingAge members identify scalable ways to create cultures of belonging and support the implementation of inclusive, person-centered equitable workplace practices.
In addition, the LeadingAge Learning Hub, Annual Meeting, and Leadership Summit offer a variety of learning opportunities to gain insights and enhance our understanding of promising practices to advance DEI and dementia inclusion efforts forward.
