Allyship (Micro)Training at AOM 2024

When:  Aug 10, 2024 from 10:30 to 12:00 (ET)
This Professional Development Workshop (PDW) is intended for those who are interested in actively co-creating more respectful, harassment-free work and conference environments. In the spirit of Innovating for the Future, we integrate the newest evidence and interventions (e.g., allyship) in the harassment space to co-create better cultures for our cohorts of today and tomorrow. Our five expert panelists will present various evidence and approaches to stemming harassment and includes those who have published research on the topic and those who have been involved with the topic from a more practical perspective. Each panelist will discuss (sexual) harassment, what they have learned in their research and careers as academics, conference goers, group leaders, bystanders, and/or ethics representatives. Together, we will explore potentially overlooked examples (i.e., what constitutes harassment) and how to be an effective ally (e.g., when we have more privilege). Attendees will have a chance to ask questions, after which they will break out into small, facilitated groups for discussion, reflection, and practice application. Our goal is to help craft more respectful work and conference experiences by raising awareness of the often subtle and ambiguous examples of harassment, practicing how we can all play a role as active allies, and co-creating higher-quality organizational and academy experiences. In this way, we innovate together with cutting-edge insights and more effective action towards a harassment-free future.
