Scenario

When teams avoid necessary conversations about equity and power

My department is supposed to be implementing new equity policies but my manager keeps defaulting to 'let's not make this political' whenever we try to address actual systemic issues. The rest of us are frustrated but no one wants to directly challenge her authority and risk the progress we have made.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The very power dynamics that need addressing become the barrier to addressing them.
