EMERGE: Building Confidence for Hard Conversations

Facilitated by Madison Tardif & Jenica Frisque

As new employees, it can be difficult to navigate issues in the workplace such as interpersonal conflict and microaggressions. Learning conflict engagement skills can help you build confidence to face hard conversations and advocate for yourself. This session will offer ways to frame conflict and give you the opportunity to explore your options for engaging with conflict early – particularly in new work environments.

EMERGE is a week-long event featuring different workshops, speakers, coaching sessions, and networking opportunities intended to support Black students and students of colour while they navigate the job market.

The aim of this event is to understand the intricacies of working in the world as a person of colour, and to provide solutions to unique challenges that may present themselves.

Join a network of peers and receive targeted guidance about how to emerge and advocate for yourself and others while job hunting.
