Upcoming MAB Speaker Event
The Dignity Index: Free Speech and Public Rhetoric
with Tim Shriver, chairman of Special Olympics International & co-creator of the Dignity Index, and Thérèse Shaheen (SFS’80), McCourt Advisory Board member & president of USAsia International.
April 15th, 5:00PM to 6:30PM
In a national climate dominated by contempt, The Dignity Index is viewed across the political spectrum as a reliable, fair and intuitive tallying mechanism for measuring rhetoric and preserving dignity. The goal is not to simply score language–but to create a culture that is more respectful and human-centered when engaging in high-stakes or divisive conversations.
