Cultivating Self-in-Context as Responsive Evaluators: Engaging Boundaries, Borderlands and Border-crossings brown bag presentation

NOTE: This presentation will include a brief update on the American Evaluation Association Task Force on Evaluator Competencies and feedback opportunities for revising the current draft.
