“Ms. Harris challenged and engaged our staff to understand their own cultural biases and how those internal processes impact their interactions with our clients. Ms. Harris created a safe environment for our staff to feel empowered to engage with clients and coworkers who have different cultural backgrounds and social identities. By bringing this training to our staff we have created a healthier work environment…”
“Donna Harris’ Intercultural Communication Workshop..” was one of the best trainings on this subject that I’ve ever participated in, both in content and tone.”
“Thank you for the enriching workshop you provided to us yesterday. Students and faculty have been expressing their appreciation for your informative and experiential approach. Donna, I heard you say that “safe” isn’t really the operative word……although I did feel safe and supported in the atmosphere you created. I appreciate your bravery in modeling open sharing of experiences and I’m sure that I will think back often on what I learned from your training.”
“Donna brings a rare combination of clinical experience, depth of knowledge, and a highly developed ability to engage groups large and small as they seek to develop or deepen their capacity for inclusive work, and affirmative models of communication and practice. Donna has a wonderful way of engaging people and encouraging individuals and organizations alike to recognize their capacities but also key gaps in the ability to navigate difficult dialogues. At Bryn Mawr, Donna has worked successfully with students, faculty, and staff to move our social justice mission forward. “
