Diversity & Inclusion Workshop
This comprehensive diversity and inclusion training program provides concrete ways to engage in respectful and positive interactions in the workplace, while reducing bias, discrimination and prejudice based on factors such as gender, ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, age, religion, physical and mental ability, and socioeconomic status.
On this programme, delegates will increase their level of understanding of diversity and inclusion, conceptually and experientially. They will learn how diversity issues impacts daily interaction in the workplace and how to generate open dialogue through active participation. Additionally, they will identify personal goals for development and application and attain a commitment to progress by valuing people’s differences with more conviction.
Best-practice diversity management involves an organisational culture that values, embraces and celebrates individual differences and has all employees do the same. This is referred to as inclusion, which involves the preservation of individual differences rather than seeking to assimilate its members to a dominant cultural norm. This course involves participants honoring the coexistence of different cultures, values, beliefs and styles in the workplace; distinguishing when those differences are dishonored; and learning strategies and methods to resolve conflicts.
