SUMMARY:Practice Traffic Stops event
DESCRIPTION:The Arc of Loudoun’s ALLY Advocacy Center will be hosting the 1st Loudoun Practice Traffic Stops in collaboration with the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office\, Leesburg Police Department\, Loudoun County Fire\, and Rescue\, and the Loudoun Disability & Justice Coalition. The event will be on July 16th from 11 am – 1 pm at Tuscarora High School in Leesburg\, Virginia. This is a great learning opportunity for everyone involved. \nThe event is simple: You can arrive at Tuscarora High School (801 N. King Street Leesburg\, Virginia) anytime from 11 AM-1 PM. You can get in line to do a practice event or visit the “observation area” if you’d like to watch some other folks go first so you have a sense of how it will go. \nWhat to Expect: When it is your turn\, you can have an officer in the car with you to explain what is happening\, or not\, depending on your preference. A police officer will approach the car and ask you the same questions he/she would during a regular traffic stop. You can answer just as you usually would. You can practice identifying whether you have a disability or not. You can practice being a driver\, passenger\, or both. You can practice having a challenging behavior or a good day. The goal is just for you to be yourself and get more comfortable talking with the police in a stressful situation. \nYou can also ask the officers any questions you have\, just like you would if you met them on the street.i

SUMMARY:Life Science Across the Globe: Gender Policies in Science
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Life Science Across the Globe\, a virtual series that brings together scientists and scholars around the world. \nBorne out of the global disruption of COVID-19\, Life Science Across the Globe was first launched in July 2020 by Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia Research Campus along with seven other partnering sister institutes listed below. The original weekly series featured a science talk paired with a science culture talk (archived talks can be found here). \nRecognizing the continued need for international science communication\, the eight sister institutes now offer a reimagined Life Science Across the Globe series. Each month\, we identify an important science or science culture theme and bring together two or three speakers from different parts of the world to present their work or thoughts on that theme. The talks\, which are aimed at a broad audience\, are followed by a moderated panel discussion and audience questions. \nWe encourage you to participate in the live event\, but each event will also be recorded and available on the Janelia YouTube Channel. \nEach month\, Life Science Across the Globe allows you to learn about scientific and societal topics of global importance\, meet the world’s most creative scientists and scholars\, and appreciate that science is a shared global effort.  Please join us.

SUMMARY:The 3 Main Cross-border Talent Challenges in Business & IT
DESCRIPTION:Highly skilled digital talent is scarce. As a result\, companies increasingly hire borderless employees\, with remote work facilitating this trend. To make the international mix work\, CIOs must acknowledge culture differences across geographies and master their management. Successful executives working with different national cultures assert that relationships and businesses are negatively affected when those cultural differences are neglected. This complimentary webinar will help CIOs and IT leaders better understand and manage these cultural differences to attract and retain critical digital talent. You will learn how to overcome the three main cross-cultural challenges in business: different decision-making styles\, conflict-resolution methods and performance feedback preferences. \n  \nDiscussion Topics:\n\nElevate awareness of the challenges in leading people from different nationalities\nOvercome the three main cross-cultural clashes in business environments\nAdapt your natural style to that of the culture in front of you
