This session will delve into the differences between cultural competency and cultural humility. The conversation will be centered around why leaders should be striving for cultural humility and not solely cultural competence. Topics to be explored include what culturally responsive leadership looks like and why leaders must be courageous enough (when warranted) to be co-conspirators rather than just allies to their staff.
