ExD: EMBOLDEN BY DESIGN
A HOLISTIC TRAINING EXPERIENCE
Today’s libraries are asked to serve wide-ranging, often stressed, and increasingly vulnerable communities with creativity, care, and skill. Yet limited capacity and intense public and stakeholder scrutiny can have a chilling effect on programming.
We know libraries already provide dynamic, meaningful programs for their communities. ExD: Embolden by Design provides library staff with compassionate structure and support to build confidence and skills, so they feel safe, prepared and excited to take smart risks during complex times in their community programming.
WHAT IS ExD?
ExD is a holistic training experience that gives library staff the tools and support they need to deliver bold programs that build empathy, challenge stereotypes, encourage active listening, and champion diverse perspectives.
ExD includes:
-
Full-day staff training
-
Collaborative program development of a four-part series for your community
-
Promotions and messaging
-
Pre- and post-program evaluation
WHO IS ExD for?
ExD is designed for trailblazers: small- to mid-sized libraries willing to innovate and invest in themselves so they can serve diverse audiences, in creative ways, with less fear or hesitancy.
