Workshop Descriptions
PLI General Workshop
The PLI Workshop is a three-day intensive that is open to people and project managers of all backgrounds. The curriculum is designed to reflect the opportunities that come with having a multi-racial space where people can connect with others who hold different identities. We are excited to offer the PLI Workshop one time in 2023. Registration is open and available first-come, first-serve with fees offered at a sliding scale based on organizational budget.
PLI BIPOC Fellowship
The PLI BIPOC Fellowship for 2023 is a program designed specifically for emerging leaders who are Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color. Similar to the Workshop, this will be held over the course of three days. We are thrilled to offer the PLI BIPOC Fellowship one time in 2023. Participants in this space will have curriculum tailored to processing the experience of being a manager of color. We hope to offer a space where participants can work with others who are also navigating dynamics of privilege and power while holding a marginalized racial identity.
