How to practice boldness in complex times

What does it mean for a library to be bold during these complex times? In this webinar, explore why bold thinking is essential for libraries and the communities they serve. Learn a practical exercise for discussing boldness with staff and connect with others who are also ready to feel emboldened.

What does it mean for a library to be bold during these complex times? And what does bold mean for you individually as a library risk taker? In this complicated moment, libraries don’t have to turn away from what’s challenging, controversial, or sensitive. It can be the time to lean in. Join the co-founders of Embolden by Design to understand why bold thinking is essential for libraries and the communities they serve. Learn a practical exercise for discussing boldness with staff and connect with others who are also ready to feel emboldened. Leave inspired by examples of boldness in libraries and other industries.
