Event Description

Title
Mission Mirroring: Insidious Ways We Recreate the Problems Outside Inside Our Organizations

Presenter
Sarai Johnson, Principal Consultant, Lean Nonprofit

Organizations who are doing good work in the world often unintentionally reflect the conditions they seek to change in the external world back into their own organizational culture. A recent example is a leader of a trauma research organization who was recently accused of abusive (and traumatizing) behavior toward staff. We do the same thing as we move toward equity and inclusion – often inadvertently recreating oppressive systems within our own organizations. Being aware and creating safeguards against Mission Mirroring is critical as we become more inclusive, humane places of work.
