Join us for a conversation with John Krownapple, co-author of the book, ”Belonging Through a Culture of Dignity.”
In this episode, John graciously shares insights from his life and explores the powerful yet often misunderstood concept of dignity. Through his experiences, we learn how dignity is a foundational element in fostering a sense of belonging within educational institutions and beyond.
Explore the intricacies and nuances of dignity and its distinction from respect as we navigate practical ways to honor our intrinsic human value. Inspired by Donna Hicks' conflict resolution strategies and 10 Essential Elements of Dignity, John highlights the tenets needs that underpin dignity, such as understanding, safety, and fairness. We tackle the triggers that can disrupt these needs and discuss how intentional actions can help build more equitable environments. John's emphasis on developing ”dignity consciousness” invites us to cultivate meaningful connections and enhance our interactions across various aspects of life.
