Understanding Diversity and Inclusion
Attend this 90-minute webinar to develop a greater understanding of various aspects of diversity and inclusion (D&I), and how they impact everyday interactions and overall workplace culture. Get the opportunity to assess your diversity intelligence and recognize the business imperative for D & I initiatives in organizations. You will build an understanding of how biases and stereotypes develop, the importance of values to cultural norms, a model for holding difficult conversations, and how overlapping threats such as racism and sexism can have a multiplicative effect on individuals and groups. You’ll also explore new strategies and tools, and increase your understanding through stories and a case study.
