Do you have a perspective, idea, or area of expertise that HR professionals and leaders need to hear?

We’re opening guest opportunities for professionals who can bring fresh thinking and practical value to the Civility Partners community.

There are two ways to join the conversation:

  1. Workplace Intelligence Series: Bring your expertise to our twice-monthly webinars, which average 590 registrants and around 300 live attendees per session. These are educational, practical sessions designed for HR professionals, leaders, and workplace culture champions.
  2. LinkedIn Live with Catherine: Sit down with Catherine for a more conversational discussion about a topic you know inside and out. Catherine has 82,000+ LinkedIn followers, with HR professionals consistently making up the largest segment of her recent LinkedIn Live audiences.

We’re looking for fresh ideas, useful research, practical takeaways, compelling perspectives, and conversations that make people think.

Sound like something you’d be a great fit for?

We want to hear it.

Fill out this quick form and tell us about yourself, your expertise, and what you’d like to talk about. Our team will review your submission to make sure there’s a strong fit with our audience.

If there’s a fit, we’ll send you details about the opportunity. If you’re interested in moving forward after reviewing them, we’ll schedule a quick call to discuss your topic, format, and next steps.

We’d love to hear what you have to bring to the conversation!

Incivility, bullying, and harassment occur because the culture allows them to. Before starting inclusivity initiatives, you’ve got to stop bad behavior. Take this assessment to determine if your workplace fosters a positive culture.
