Workplace Diversity and Inclusion

Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging (DIB) is a way of supporting and applying inclusive practices in the workplace. Diversity refers to the variety of demographic identities within teams, such as age, disability, nationality, ethnicity, race, skin tone, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic background. Inclusion is building a (corporate) culture or structure that enables diverse group members to participate and be recognized equally in the workplace.

This growth catalyst workshop uses effective communication, interpersonal skills, emotional awareness & critical thinking to deal with diversity, inclusion and a sense of belonging in the workplace. The outcome is a way of identifying strengths, reducing the negative impact of unconscious bias, microaggressions and assumptions. Participants set short/long-term growth and development goals, to create a lasting inclusive workplace culture. This leads to a positive employee experience, resulting in more discretionary effort and growth for the organization.
