"Teen girls have solutions to save us from some of our biggest problems," says digital strategist Deja Foxx. Following her talk at TED2025, she joins Elise Hu, host of TED Talks Daily, to discuss the power, innovation and intelligence of teen girls — especially
amid a rise in online platforms censoring women's health and creativity. Foxx reflects on how she went viral for speaking up at a town hall meeting, talks about the importance of carving out space for a different kind of internet and shares some of the women-led
platforms uplifting female creatives. She also explores her journey into politics and shows how anyone can practice civic engagement, both online and offline.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo4"><b>READ</b>:

Microaggressions are the everyday verbal, nonverbal, and environmental slights, snubs, or insults, whether intentional or unintentional, that communicate hostile, derogatory, or negative messages to target persons based solely upon their marginalized group
membership.<br>

<p class="MsoListParagraph">There is not a single “best way” to respond when we witness a microaggression in an interaction between two people, or when we observe actions or hear comments that seem to demonstrate unconscious bias. For people whose identities
are not directly targeted by the words or actions, we have a responsibility to take action in solidarity and find ways to use whatever privilege we have to take action and influence the person who did the harm. At times, that action may simply be calling out
unacceptable behavior or naming the impact those words or actions had.<br>

<b>LEARN</b>: <b><a href="https://my.nicheacademy.com/oregonstaff/course/72490">Change Management: The Power of Advocates</a></b> (self-paced tutorial)<br>
When managing change initiatives, leaders need to engage and effectively utilize supportive stakeholders who are willing to reinforce key change messages and encourage others to try out and adopt new behaviors. At the same time, leaders need to seek out, hear,
and potentially act upon views that are in opposition to what the change is intended to accomplish or how the change is being implemented.
<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">In this course, Kathryn Zukof, author of The Hard and Soft Sides of Change Management: Tools for Managing Process and People, will explain how to tap into and leverage both perspectives - advocates and
the devil’s advocate – during any change effort. Kathryn will describe actions leaders can take to enlist the participation of supportive stakeholders at every level in the organization to achieve the advocacy that’s needed for the change to succeed. And she’ll
provide concrete steps leaders can take to actively seek out contrarian and critical viewpoints and use this information to improve project outcomes.<br>
