This document is a work in progress

• “Slowing down”
• Without leadership buy-in the work won’t happen
• People default to what they know in times of scarcity or ambiguity
• Equity work requires hand holding, guard rails, and accountability
• Changes require maintenance
• We must caution against the meaning of the words we use being diluted
• We must caution against the words we use being used against us
• Equity work seems relegated for the good times / nice to have i.e. retroactive work rather than proactive work and preventative
• What are organizational priorities?
• Thoughtfulness in slowing down
• Pessimistic outlook
• Optimistic outlook / hopeful
• Systemic change vs micro interventions
• Shocks to the system / lots of change
