One need not travel outside of MN to encounter cultures from all around the world. How do we ensure respect and understanding of multiple cultures as we engage in community? With humility and agility, we can grow our capacity to be responsive leaders in multicultural settings. In our time together, we will use reflecting on our home cultures to cultivate tools for cultural agility in our community work.
