The skills required to lead in a race-conscious society have taken on new urgency following a national call for leaders to recognize and dismantle structural racism in nursing. This session strengthens the capacity of forward-thinking individuals to identify structural racism and lead race-related discourse in the educational arena. Real-world examples that build on Daniel Goleman's components of EQ will be used to frame the session. Participants will walk through a scenario and use six critical steps to guide race-centered discourse
