The fundamental question is...How do you respond to change?
Disruption isn't always negative, but it is always about change!
The good news is that we get to decide how we respond. It's not a matter of if, but when, life disruptions will happen, so are you waiting for change or making it happen.
What do you do when...
Unexpected change blindsides you and you're not prepared?
SomeoneĀ else's change affects you?
You need to change but don't know how or want to?
Hear stories on why, what and how Disruption can help you get past the Stagnant Quo, Get Unstuck and Move Forward!

27 AUG 2020 Ā· Why Are They So Angry?
A conversation with: Dr. Carol Francois, Learning Ambassador
Carol is a lifelong Educator/Teacher who proudly proclaims that teaching is in her DNA and she
cannot not teach! After George Floydās death, she was compelled to do something, so sharing a
book list lead to starting a FB group and moderating historical book reviews. Within 3 months,
there is now a website, podcast, social media streams, and online course ā all addressing
systemic racism in America.
Highlights from this conversation
ļ· Disruption can be positive when life needs to shift gears
ļ· George Floyd was a turning point - What can I do?
ļ· Shared my book list to help people understand Americaās history of systemic racism
ļ· A friend suggested I lead a book group
ļ· Over 300 members on the Why Are They So Angry? FB page
ļ· Over time we realize how much we donāt know
ļ· Delivering American History with the parts that have been left out
ļ· Started exploring books about different systems in America and how Black people have
been treated
ļ· Systemic Racism: See it, Say it, Confront it
ļ· Knowledge + Action = Power
ļ· Diversity VS. Anti - Racism
ļ· Know what your Anti is about so when you see it, you can call it out
ļ· Becoming more comfortable discussing the undiscussables
ļ· Check our own core values
ļ· Systemic racism is supported through hierarchy and power
ļ· Biases, Bigotry and Prejudices do not necessarily = systemic racism but can support it
ļ· Be responsible for your own learning

The fundamental question is...How do you respond to change?
Disruption isn't always negative, but it is always about change!
The good news is that we get to decide how we respond. It's not a matter of if, but when, life disruptions will happen, so are you waiting for change or making it happen.
What do you do when...
Unexpected change blindsides you and you're not prepared?
SomeoneĀ else's change affects you?
You need to change but don't know how or want to?
Hear stories on why, what and how Disruption can help you get past the Stagnant Quo, Get Unstuck and Move Forward!
