Part 1 introduces DE&I, including how to understand and discuss it.

Leaders are beginning to recognize that diversity is a topic that can’t be ignored, especially in light of recent social uprisings and conflict in the spring of 2020 which will have a ripple effect on everything we do. Diverse, inclusive, and equitable work environments have been shown to: enhance worker productivity spark creativity and innovation and improve performance. Yet, diversity, equity, and inclusion (“DE&I”) are often very hard to tackle and talk about. Because of the complexity of designing and leading DE&I team, organizations need employees and leaders with a complex understanding and high-quality training, which this course provides. To become a better leader and help your organization address DE&I topics, you’ll learn to think critically about DE&I from personal, communication, organizational, and leadership views. This is an online class, offered on Zoom from 9am-4pm.
