Advocacy and Speaking Up:
I have voiced my opinions and concerns about gender discrimination, either in conversations with colleagues, friends, or supervisors. For example, I questioned the hiring practices at your old job and advocated for more inclusive policies.
Challenging Stereotypes: I have actively challenged stereotypes by sharing my passion and knowledge about basketball and football, regardless of the gender expectations others might have. Supporting Inclusivity: I have taken steps to support and encourage inclusivity in my environment. This included supporting male colleagues in roles traditionally seen as female-dominated or encouraging women to participate in sports.
Seeking Allies: I have sought out like-minded individuals who share my views on gender equality and inclusivity, forming a support network to address and combat gender bias.
Providing Feedback: when I was in a position to do so, I have provided feedback to my employer about their hiring practices, suggesting ways to make them more equitable and inclusive.
Restate your goals for personal growth. Is there anything you would edit given what we have learned thus far? What actions can you take in class today that would actively help you reach those goals?
