Allyship in The Workplace: A Fireside Chat with Jason Bordoff and Karen Catlin

Past Event

November 16, 2023

6:00 pm - 8:00 pm est

Knowing how to be a better ally in the workplace is unfamiliar territory for many of us. The Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia SIPA’s Women in Energy initiative invites you to a discussion about allyship. Join us for a fireside chat with Jason Bordoff, founding director of the Center on Global Energy Policy, and Karen Catlin, author of Better Allies and Belonging in Healthcare, who will discuss the challenges employees who are members of underrepresented groups face in the workplace and how to take action as an ally.

What is it to be an ally in the workplace? How can people in power use allyship to support underrepresented communities? Anyone interested in learning practical tips for how to be an ally in the workplace is encouraged to attend.
