Including Everyone
This is a workshop where a distributed team finds and fixes the quiet ways distance leaves people out. It looks well beyond meetings, at where decisions really get made, who hears news first, who gets the visible work, who is part of the informal side of the team, and whose hours everything is planned around. The session runs as an inclusive hybrid or online meeting, with writing before talking in every round, so it models the fix as it goes.
