objectives

Objective One

Communications training on how to frame sensitive conversations aboutrace and when it  shows up in reading material, curriculum, and school discussions.

Objective Two

Processing different perspectives and common phrases that could unintentionally cause harm.

Objective Three

Identification of steps we can take as an Ally, and what to do when we mess up (because we all will and do).

Objective Four

Understanding the affects of trauma on the way we talk and listen to students, parents, and educators during conversations about race.

WHY TACTICAL TEACHER?

Educators need a unifying team building activity around inclusion to celebrate each other and bond as a team.

Become aware of how the way we talk about race could potentially cause harm

Classes are taught remotely across different environments.

Educators may not be equipped to create action towards inclusion.

Critical conversations about racial representation, equality, allyship, and inclusion are happening in the classroom.

Allies don’t know what it means to take action as an ally.  And, they don’t know how or where to start.

Brooks E. Scott

I'm a connection percolator.

What does that mean? It means I build connection not
only through what I say & do, but also in how I listen.

Whether working as a VP for a $9-billion dollar cyber-security company, building diverse teams from scratch, the Manager of Operations for the protection team for the CEO & COO of Facebook, a state trooper, a 5th-grade school teacher, an executive coach, D& I strategic advisor, or advising on internal & external communications for companies, I realized that while I was damn good at what I was doing, everything I did had a singular focus: connection.

Here’s the bottom line: as humans, we are biologically wired to connect. But we’ve strayed so far from that truth that we have basically trained ourselves to be pretty bad at connection. The good news is...we can change that.

Client Stories

"The Race and Allyship program was extremely enlightening and educational. The program taught us how we could view and approach this sensitive topic with a primary goal of collaboration. I highly recommend this program, especially given current events."

Rob S, CFO

"Really want to appreciate you for navigating between leading an effective conversation and contributing as an individual in a meaningful way. It was both terrific to experience as a participant and a cool opportunity to take notes on how to switch hats gracefully."

Dan K, Director of Engineering

"The processing session gave me the opportunity to come to grips with what I was feeling internally and what I was showing externally. In addition, it provided me resources on how I can communicate these feelings in a professional / corporate setting. Lastly, Brooks provided a safe and inviting setting that empowered the team to share their points of view, all without judgment."

Damion W, Senior Sales Leader & Diversity Programs

"Brooks has an amazing energy and temperament for doing this type of work - he's empathetic, energetic and is quickly able to earn trust to bring everyone into the conversation. Our team found his workshop to be eye-opening and informative and left us all with concrete ways to act as an ally in our lives at work and outside.”
