It's time for an inward dialogue... and you're invited! This evening will be a thought-provoking exploration of the challenges faced by speakers, corporate trainers, coaches, and thought leaders in the era of being 'WOKE' and the 'Cancel' culture.
The purpose of this discussion is to foster a safe and inclusive space for dialogue on sensitive issues, speakers' choices of words, cancellations, boundaries, and the question of pushing limits. We will aim to dissect the power and perils of language, analyze the impact of the choice of words, and discuss the delicate balance between responsible expression and censorship.
We feel it is imperative to address these topics because they are at the heart of contemporary speaking, influencing our interactions and engagements, and certainly the social dynamics, as we collectively make an impact in society.
TOPIC:
Navigating the Razor's Edge: Unpacking Woke Culture, Speaker Censorship, and Boundaries in Dialogue - Finding the Balance Between Expressing, Learning, and Evolving
In a world where words can unite or divide, this discussion delves into the complex landscape of sensitive conversations, the rise of "Woke Culture," and the challenges faced by speakers when choosing their words. We will explore language nuances, the fear of cancellation, and the tightrope walk of maintaining boundaries while pushing the envelope.
From addressing the pitfalls of political correctness to discussing the responsibilities of both speakers and audiences, we'll engage in a thoughtful and candid conversation about the delicate balance between free expression and social responsibility, also, we'll explore why some voices are cancelled and how to walk the fine line.
Agenda:
- Opening Panel (Rotating Panel)
- Table Discussions (Participant-led, semi-moderated)
- Closing Remarks (by participants from the Table Discussions)
The table discussions in 'Breakout' groups are to facilitate open and focused conversations around your experiences and thoughts on this subject.
Let's seek to find common ground in the age of cancel culture. We look forward to your participation!
