Diversity And Inclusion: Implement Best Practices To Empower Your Workforce
Course Overview
Diversity and inclusion policies improve a company’s financial health by creating a more diverse pool of employees and applicants.
In this course, you’ll find out how and why recruiting employees from marginalised backgrounds can improve business prospects. Why do we mention profit first? Because the social benefits of having a diverse, culturally competent organisation go without saying. However, this course will show you just how valuable diversity, inclusion and equity are in the modern workforce.
This course will equip you with the knowledge, tools and techniques to understand and implement diversity and inclusion initiatives within your organisation. It creates a professional space where you can reflect on culture and leadership in order to uplift and empower marginalised voices.
From creating a sourcing plan to removing systemic barriers to diverse hiring, it’s important to set a strong professional example as a proactive leader. Employees from marginalised backgrounds bring new perspectives and influences to your teams to promote creativity and innovation.
While such a complicated topic may seem daunting, you’ll learn about each of these topics incrementally to form a strong foundation of knowledge going forward. You don’t need to arrive here with any prior knowledge or unique experiences.
