The Flourishing Ally: How to Become the Ally You Wish You Had

Most of us want to be a positive force for others and stand up with and support those who are suffering. But we often get lost in the complex terrain of becoming effective allies. In the process, we risk letting down the very people we wish to support and damaging the relationships we seek to foster. Drawing from more than 15 years of research on allyship and well-being, Dr. Meg Warren challenges conventional wisdom about allyship. She reveals why common approaches to allyship fall short and why a well-being-centered approach to allyship can stand the test of time, strengthen relationships, and reduce polarization. In this evidence-based, practical keynote, Warren showcases how we can become the kind of ally we wish we had.

Key Takeaways:
• Understand why allyship can feel challenging, and how we can approach it differently
• Discover what sorts of allyship marginalized individuals find to be most useful
• Learn 3 simple strategies on how to become more effective as an ally today.
