Openness as a Way of Being

Maha Bali exudes openness as a way of being on episode 493 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

I don’t really know everything I have to say, but I’m willing to share my unfinished thoughts with you and I am willing to be criticized for it.
-Maha Bali

If people don’t have the vocabulary to express how they feel, they’ll just say they are fine.
-Maha Bali

This is a space where everyone in the room has to be collectively inclusive, and that’s kind of part of what equity and inclusion in facilitation and in classrooms needs to be.
-Maha Bali

My mentoring is not out of responsibility as something that I have to, I do it with joy because I’m building relationships with people.
