Cultivating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, One High Five at a Time: Join Our Book Club Discussion on ‘The High Five Habit’ by Mel Robbins
The Office of Diversity and Inclusion, Materiel Group, National Defence, invites you to our second book club meeting centred around Mel Robbins' empowering text, "The High Five Habit." Join us as we discuss this work and explore its profound relevance to our goal of cultivating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within the workplace.
"The High Five Habit" is a dynamic, intuitive, and instructive guide that reveals the transformative power of celebrating others through a simple gesture: a high five. This fascinating read offers critical insights for developing our communication skills, building stronger interpersonal relationships within our spaces, embracing the diversity that underscores the fabric of our work environment and our society at large, and cultivating a psychologically safe and inclusive environment where people's authenticity and uniqueness are recognized and valued.
As members of the federal public service, we are steadfast in our commitment to serving our diverse society and ensuring equitable opportunities for all. By coming together to discuss "The High Five Habit," we not only intentionally carve out space and time to engage with the principles behind DEI but also explore practical ways to implement them in our daily work lives.
During the book club meeting, we will engage in lively discussions, exchange knowledge, and draw inspiration from the book's lessons. Together, we will discover how a simple gesture like a high five can incite positive change, foster collaboration, and create an inclusive work environment where everyone feels heard, respected, and valued. So, we invite you to participate in this enriching and timely event, to bring your authentic and unique perspectives and insights, and to contribute to the collective growth and advancement of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the federal public service.
