Orange Habitat
specializes in organizational development and corporate
trainings on social responsibility, cultural competency, diversity, inclusion and identity.
Trainings are customized to the
clients' specific needs and organizational culture.
Trainings and group facilitation models include:
Corporate:
Investing in the well being and health of employees and work
environments creates a huge asset for businesses and
corporations that enrich their workplace
culture and increases productivity.
-
Drawing the Map (the 101):
A 2-hour introductory session that explores your company's
(or team's) composition, beyond the apparent identity
presentations. This interactive session helps team
members develop a better understanding of who they spend
their work days with and why is it important to look
beyond stereotypes and assumptions.
-
Knowing Who We Are (the 102):
A half day intermediate level exploration of your
corporate culture and how it relates to a diverse
employee structure. A mixed method session that will
encourage everyone to better connect with their work
environment and each other to achieve better
productivity and cooperation.
-
Planning Ahead (the 201):
This full day interactive workshop goes beyond learning
who we are and how we relate to each other (included in
the day's curriculum) and delves into presenting
challenges that teams might be facing within the
existing corporate culture. The day includes a
facilitated round table style session that allows team
members and leaders to present and discuss these
challenges and try to work on resolutions.
Non-Profit:
Canada's diversity reflects on the composition of our client
base and the way we provide services for them. There is a
profound need for service providers to understand the
identities people carry with them, whether it was ethnic,
social, gender based, sexual or political identities, or an
intersection of some or all of them and beyond.
Understanding where "clients" come from, as well as
understanding your own social location as a service provider
is key to providing services that are sensitive and
appropriate.
-
Introduction to "Identity":
A two hour session that allows service providers,
including board members and management teams to explore,
question and challenge their knowledge of concepts of
identity, labels and social locations.
-
The Half Day:
A 3.5 hour customized interactive workshop that would
expand the conversation to address issues relating to
the specific populations your organization serve. This
training curriculum will specifically address one, or a
combination of the following:
- Working with Immigrants and Refugees
- Reconciling faith and family cultures with sexual and
gender identities
- Working with LGBTQ youth and adults
-
The Full Day:
A 7 hour interactive workshop that goes
deeper into learning who we are and how we relate to
each other (included in the day's curriculum) and delves
into presenting challenges that teams might be facing
within the existing organizational dynamics. The day
includes facilitated discussions that allows team
members and leaders to present and discuss these
challenges and try to work on resolutions based on
better understanding of social locations and identities,
within an anti-oppression, collaborative framework.
