    Increasing diversity by becoming more inclusive

    By ASTDOffice | September 17, 2007

    For the past two years, ASTD-Cascadia board has focused on creating a more inclusive professional association. Much of this work has been behind the scenes, building the foundation for a long term initiative. In the next phase, we will be involving more people and bringing the work forward to the center of how we operate.

    Where did we start?

    Lolita and ThomasThe board identified diversity as a core value in November 2005. A committee was formed to execute an environmental scan of the ASTD-Cascadia market for learning and development professionals. Lolita Burnette and Thomas Hardy brought forth initial recommendations for the organization.

    How have we done so far?

    Conference homepageWe have made significant progress. While the website hasn’t been completely redesigned, both the conference website and this blog have intentionally included more diverse people images. We’ve added information about accommodation availability to our program information.

    Some of our biggest success is in the area of incorporating diversity into our programming.

    The board has incorporated diversity skill building into their meetings. We explored the question of ‘What makes a culturally competent professional association?” in the April board meeting. You can see the process we went through, and how another more diverse organization explored the same question on my blog: Using photographs for strategic exploration.

    Building partnerships

    The diversity and inclusion work has it’s roots in two long term partnerships ASTD-Cascadia has enjoyed with Portland State University Training and Development program and the Intercultural Communication Institute (ICI).

    PSU Training and Development ProgramChris Cartwright, the program manager of the PSU program has worked on the conference committee to bring us rich diversity in the speakers, and has provided credit, space, and funding to make some of our programs possible. He has consistently worked behind the scenes bringing his passion for diversity and inclusion to all he touches.

    Janet BennettICI’s Executive Director, Janet Bennett is a long time ASTD-Cascadia member, who has brought diversity awareness to our chapter members through her position as a faculty member in the PSU training and development program, appearing as a speaker at chapter events, and offering us the resources of ICI and the Summer Institute for Intercultural Communication (SIIC). It is through her support that we have been able to tap into the resources of her faculty members: Todd Conklin, Donna Stringer, Lee Gardenschwarz, Jorge Cherbosque, and Anita Rowe. Many of our members have moved their awareness and skills in diversity and inclusion to new levels by attending SIIC. I was fortunate to attend again this past summer to work with Donna Stringer and Anita Rowe to help us with the strategic plan for the chapter initiative.

    SIETAR USAPortland is fortunate to be home of the Society for Intercultural Education, Training and Research (SIETAR-USA). This is the US branch of an international network of professional organizations concerned with the challenges and rewards of intercultural relations. There are a number of joint members of the two organizations, so we have been able to tap their resources. We look forward o continuing to develop relationships between their national members, as well as the local branch SIETAR- PDX.

    Next steps

    The next steps are to form a diversity and inclusion council to look at how to deepen the work. Specifically, we’ll be looking at the operational practices of the chapter, and how we may unintentionally be excluding certain populations by how we do things. The first meeting is Wednesday September 19 from 5:30 - 7:30 at Pyramid Brewery’s Alehouse. The second meeting will also be held at Pyramid on October 18 from 4:00 - 6:00 PM. You are welcome to join us in this work, whether you are currently a chapter member or just interested in the work we are doing. For more information, or to RSVP for the event contact me at outreach@astdcascadia.org.
