Abstract: This session introduces my Integral Evaluator-Self Quadrant Model as a holistic self-assessment framework for ethical praxis and inclusive excellence. It provides a comprehensive resource for enhancing multilateral self-awareness, in the context of other aspects of the evaluator role, through explicitly representing the intersection of two dimensions: (individual vs. collective vantage points) X (interior vs. exterior environments). The model offers a framework of sensitizing concepts and questions for mindfully scanning, tracking and monitoring *WHO* factors, notably, the human systems dynamics vis a vis relevant diversity divides. As we move among the relevant situational and relational contexts for our work, the model offers some head's up alerts for checking with ourselves vis a vis what the context is calling for from us. This facilitates a more mindful assessment of the status of one's forcefield of preparedness and readiness for the sociocultural context as well as the tasks embodied in the evaluation questions and agenda.
