Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace

Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace

Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) is for all. It's not just a phase but a permanent behavior that needs to permeate corporate America. D&I impacts growth, morale, retention, talent management and so many other facets of work-life. It's critical that both employees and managers have the education, tools, and support to build inclusive cultures that are able to compete in a global economy. D&I creates a better organization for EVERYONE!

The goal of this course is to provide education on the history of D&I, create experiences that cause reflection, and provide resources so that you can learn more.

These lectures were built on four pillars which are:

• Education

• Reform

• Reflection

• Accountability

Reflection is probably one of the most important pieces of these four pillars and it's integrated deeply into all of my curricula because many people move too quickly from education to reform without deep reflection. Without a true change in mindset, behavior cannot be impacted and the goal is not to command people to diversify and be inclusive but to cultivate and plant seeds so that these behaviors are organic and grow behaviors without dictatorship. A lack of accountability is an obstacle to change. I will provide ideas on how to create accountability in this area but the choice is up to you.

Creating diverse, anti-racist, and inclusive workplaces starts with personal responsibility, and I encourage anyone who is taking this course to start and keep a notebook and write down questions, and responses to the many reflection questions that will be presented throughout this course.
