This workshop is based on research and insights aimed at understanding Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at our workplaces.

It will also help the participants understand the business, moral and the legal case for diversity and inclusion.

 

Finally, the workshop will focus on steps to bring change at an individual level:

Awareness
Openness and fairness
Speak up
Check your assumptions 
Respect differences

 

By the end of the session, the participants will be able to do the following:

 

Thrive in a culture of belonging

Inclusive Leadership

Participants: All employees

Duration: 2 hours

Our brain automatically uses short-cuts to navigate an incredible amount of data and information and makes snap decisions about who we prefer and who we avoid.  The Mitigate Unconscious Bias course is an interactive and engaging training session that features a deep dive into unconscious bias, how it leads to stereotyping, and how everyone of us is affected by it. It will take the team through practical tips on how to limit the damaging power of stereotyping and instead build inclusion. Disrupting bias using tools and creating a more balanced and inclusive culture are the core learning objectives of the session.

Mitigating Unconscious Bias

Participants: Senior Leaders, People Managers

Duration: 2 hours

What leaders say and do has an outsized impact on others.  Research indicates that this effect is even more pronounced when they are leading diverse teams. Subtle words and acts of exclusion by leaders, or overlooking the exclusive behaviors of others, easily reinforces the status quo. It takes energy and deliberate effort to create an inclusive culture, and that starts with leaders paying more attention to what they say and do on a daily basis and making adjustments as necessary. This highly interactive workshop is directed at leaders and is practical in nature. 

 

This workshop emphasizes practical exercises and links DEI to activities leaders are responsible for such as setting strategy, managing risks and problem solving.
