Hi everyone, In preparation for this year’s super regional conference in Denver, November 15-17, 2021, we need some help in focusing in on those areas that are most relevant. *Early bird registration is available here: https://prsuper-regionalmeeting.org/ <https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Furldefense.com%2Fv3%2F__https%3A%2F%2Fprsuper-regionalmeeting.org%2F__%3B!!JmPEgBY0HMszNaDT!7GUXrEkB-ZqXxCf-7IrWevaKY1ldTGFXp1I39VHqXL-jezOs4J7hE7rJ2ZY_QDHe3r_b%24&data=04%7C01%7Chdieringer%40vpr.org%7C3dc924cc35044369588d08d94736286c%7C66bea1f860184be189206f1f9a7d36d5%7C1%7C0%7C637619120214491483%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=5NNOwh0dWuFNeu1jst%2BYBFXVXWA4vO1sJEDgJ5pyJls%3D&reserved=0>* There’s no shortage of relevant DEI content, but our goal is to give managers what you want. We’ve slightly reduced the # of sessions to meet the strong feedback that we find more time for participants to interact with each other. Please prioritize your top 3 choices below, and if you don’t see what you want, tell us what that may be. Feel free to give us your free-wheeling thought about DEI topics! Please respond to *Patricia Cervini [email protected] <[email protected]>* by the end of this week so we can keep pressing forward, and thanks!! 1. Managing awkward discussions & conversations around difference. 2. What does Diversity, Equity, and Inclusiveness (DEI) look like in your newsroom? 3. Engaging donors of color and handling racist donors. 4. How can my station obtain funding for DEI related initiatives and training? 5. How can my station better recruit diverse applicants? 6. DEI retention. How to position your DEI employees for success and advancement. 7. Dis-spelling the myth that diversity in public media is a closed network and that there are only a handful of qualified diversity speakers & experts. 8. How to successfully track & measure your station’s DEI efforts. 9. How to make DEI an integral part of your station’s culture. 10. ____________________________________________________ (fill in the blank) *Frank Lanzone, Jr. * President ~ General Manager KCBX Inc. 4100 Vachell Lane San Luis Obispo CA 93401 805-549-8855
