<p><em>Join Anima Leadership co-founder </em><a href="https://annahiddashtgard.com/about/">Shakil Choudhury</a><em> in a conversation on how to use a system-thinking approach to politic-proof your EDI efforts.</em> </p> <p>In an era of increasing political volatility, anti-EDI forces have been using social media and legal levers to successfully push back on progressive policies designed to advance historically excluded groups in both the US and Canada. <br></p> <p>This cafe explores ways that leaders can politic-proof an organization’s EDI efforts by adopting a systems-thinking approach and de-compartmentalizing EDI by borrowing strategies to improve performance from other parts of the business. In doing so, leaders can limit their organization’s exposure to critics while supporting social justice goals.  </p>
