About This Event
Join Community Resource Center and Consultants for Good (C4G) on May 19, 2026, from 11am–12pm for a collaborative, interactive conversation on Equitable Hiring & Motivational Interviewing — a space to ask questions and connect directly with an expert.
This is part of our 2026 “Ask an Expert” series, that feature practical conversations on key nonprofit challenges like Diversifying Revenue, Leading Organizations in Times of Change, Nonprofit Finance and additional sessions throughout the year!
Session Overview
Join a conversation exploring equitable systems design, leadership decision-making, and people practices. Motivational Interviewing serves as a practical foundation for the session, supporting hiring teams, supervisors, and leaders to slow down decision-making, surface assumptions, and move from “gut instinct” to intentional, values-aligned choices.
Equitable hiring isn’t treated as a standalone DEI concept. It’s integrated into how organizations define roles, assess candidates, structure interviews, and make final decisions. Throughout the session, led by Christina Hassan, she will focus on the real points in the process where bias and assumptions naturally show up—and how to work with them skillfully.
Christina’s approach is grounded, human, and highly practical. She helps participants recognize where bias appears without shame or blame and offers tools they can use in real time. That includes reframing “fit,” interrupting common interview biases, asking better questions, listening differently, and making more defensible hiring decisions. Emphasizing progress over perfection, she aims to leave participants feeling more confident and capable, rather than overwhelmed.
About the Speaker: Chrsitina Hassan
Christina Hassan founded her firm in 2017 to help organizations align leadership, strategy, and people systems in ways that are practical, equitable, and built to last. Much of her work centers on moments of growth, transition, or tension—when structure, clarity, and trust matter most.
In addition to this work, she brings deep experience as an executive coach to C-suite leaders, executive directors, and leadership teams, connecting individual leadership growth to broader systems change. She collaborates with a senior bench of experts across organizational development, strategy, HR, and communications, often providing fractional or embedded leadership support. Clients turn to her when they need more than advice—they need partners who can think systemically, navigate complexity, and help teams move from intention to execution.
Her working style is direct, collaborative, and grounded in reality. She names what may be getting in the way, asks hard questions with care, and supports leaders in building systems that strengthen both people and performance. She is known for building trust quickly and translating ambitious, values-driven goals into actionable organizational practice.
