This theatrical program provides an opportunity for audiences to hear, explore and experience each other in a manner that illuminates their similarities rather than their differences. The theatrical piece brings to life accessible characters who are fully human, credible and fallible. The primary objective is to stimulate discussion about the opportunities for greater understanding of diversity and inclusion. Listening to the stories of the characters in the theatrical piece will provide the opportunities to learn about: Exclusion and inclusion in the workplaceFeeling empathy and identification with the charactersSeeing the commonality of our human experience that flows underneath all the storiesOur own unconscious biasYour Story, My Story is a component of our Cornerstones of Community professional development track and participation in this program is an expectation for all supervisors. This virtual event is open to Lehigh Staff and Faculty only
