I invite you to ask yourself the following questions...

If you answered “YES”, then our groundbreaking 8-week hybrid learning opportunity is designed specifically for you!

What is Anti-Oppressive Supervision™ anyway?

In a nutshell, Anti-Oppressive Supervision™ is an approach to leadership and management that seeks to dismantle systems of oppression and foster equitable working environments. It is a derivative of SBT’s core Anti-Oppressive Advocacy® framework and challenges various power-based hierarchies (race, gender, religion, etc.) often present in White-centered systems that perpetuate marginalization within the workplace.  It also  prioritizes environments where BIPOC folx can voice their perspectives, share their experiences, and thrive without fear of discrimination.

How does this approach work?

Anti-Oppressive Supervision™ recognizes that traditional management styles that mimic the tenets of a White Supremacy culture perpetuate systemic oppression. This approach challenges those norms, aiming to create a space where everyone's voices are heard, respected, and valued. It rests on five key principles:

  • ✔
    Reflection and Awareness:

    Managers engage in continuous self-reflection to identify their Oppressive Muscle Memory™, privileges, and blind spots. This self-awareness fuels an understanding of how power dynamics and oppressive habits impact decision-making.

  • ✔
    Inclusive Dialogue:

    This approach necessitates transparent team dialogue that normalizes the expectation of diverse perspectives

  • ✔
    Equitable Decision-Making:

    Anti-Oppressive Supervision™ guides leaders to make decisions that counteract systemic biases by first asking “Who benefits most from the system operating this way?”

  • ✔
    Personal and Professional Growth:

    This approach prioritizes growth for both leaders and their teams. It's not just about achieving goals and valuing humanity over productivity – it's about fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.

  • ✔
    Change Agents:

    Anti-Oppressive Supervisors are change agents. They actively challenge norms, policies, and practices that perpetuate oppression, contributing to a workplace that champions justice.

Cultural Competency
Trains You To Be Nice…

In today's diverse workplace, inclusive leadership is not just a buzzword; it's an imperative. As a White-identified or White-assimilated manager, you play a vital role in shaping the culture of your organization and supporting your team.

However, standard trainings designed to address the intersection of oppression and office culture have always failed at moving the needle away from liability and tolerance as overarching goals. Any training that only teaches you how to solely tolerate difference fails in two ways:

  • ✗It fails in helping you interrogate your own relationship with Whiteness and how it taints professional spaces. 
  • ✗It fails to challenge your hard-wired conditioning of minimizing nuance of personhood for your comfort. 
This is the definition of Color-blind Supervision.

It inherently makes it impossible to see or advocate for staff of color. You need a new strategy… and we have one!

Anti-Oppressive Advocacy®
Trains You To Be Kind!

Anti-Oppressive Advocacy® is a framework dedicated to deconstructing the “one larger narrative” created by those in power to validate the truths of those previously erased and deemed inferior.  Its success lies in its ability to support leaders in dismantling oppression by interrogating one’s own Oppressive Muscle Memory™. Instead of focusing first on the global majority, it centers on how you have been conditioned to sustain White Supremacy in large and small ways. Instead of teaching you how to sound anti-racist, this framework teaches you how to be anti-racist.

We are thrilled to explore this framework with you in the format of a comprehensive 8-week hybrid learning program that empowers you to navigate the complexities of diverse workplace dynamics confidently. Through a thoughtfully designed blend of online content and interactive live sessions, you'll gain the knowledge, skills, and strategies needed to lead from a liberatory framework.
