2. CE Values…Inclusiveness
We recognize, appreciate and honor the
differences, similarities and contributions of all
people and communities. We are intentional in
our efforts to ensure equity, justice and
fairness. We embrace new ideas and
approaches in our work.
3. Robert Fuller in Somebodies and Nobodies
(2003) suggests that rank divides us into
"somebodies" and "nobodies." More than most
care to admit, we treat others--and are treated by
others--based on our relative rank. The truth is
that each of us has felt like a somebody some
times and a nobody at others. A key to feeling like
a somebody is being recognized by others.
Without recognition from others, we may feel
discounted, disconnected, marginal, or even
invisible.
Somebodies and Nobodies

•Listen together for deeper insights and
understanding

said…not what others said
Ground rules

appear on the organizational chart.

Let’s Get Started…

15. I feel like a “somebody”…
• Participate as a resource and assistant with all
colleagues
• Attend meetings and share ideas as an equal contributor
• Part of marketing initiative and movement
• Part of internship recruitment
• New Orleans Cultural Immersion participant
• My ideas are important for what I contribute; not based
on rank.

I Feel Like a Somebody When…
17. Organizational Culture
• Organizational silence is a barrier that occurs
when individuals or groups feel compelled to
remain silent in the face of issues, problems
or concerns. Organizations lose vital
information necessary for making change.
• Some work place cultures retard innovation
by focusing on the way things have always
been done.
18. • Have you ever been in a situation where you
have remained silent even though you had
information important for the decision or
problem?
• What contributed to your silence?
19.
20. How are we doing in CE?
• Small group discussion:
– Things we do well
– Barriers to inclusion
• Large group sharing
21. Western District Examples
• Terminology:
– Never “academic staff”; “faculty”
– “Educators”
– Colleagues
• All colleagues in the office participate in Civil
Rights Days
• County support staff are recognized on
birthdays, Administrative Professional Day,
and with an annual in-service
• Recognize office teams at district meetings
22.
23. Where do we go from here?
• Everyone has a role and shares responsibility
• Difficult conversations
– They are more about US than THEM
– It’s the RIGHT thing to do
– Change is not created without dialogue
26. "Inclusion is a process of identifying, understanding
and breaking down barriers to participation and
belonging.“ Author Unknown
