Target Audience
Charity Trustees, Board Directors & Executives interested and involved in talent, risk, culture & performance.. Maximum number of participants: 16
Outline
This course is designed to enhance your understanding of Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) – what it is & why it matters for your Board, your teams and yourself. Relevant Equality legislation is referenced and how it links with our day-to-day. The course delves into the barriers that constrain our ability to fully embrace diversity and sustain an inclusive working environment. This includes a deep dive into the impact of our biases on how we communicate, collaborate and make decisions. And, crucially, what we can do about it to mitigate the negative impact and accelerate a positive cultural transformation.
Outcomes
• Enable attendees to recognise their legislative requirements and the strategic value & benefit of embracing diversity and supporting an inclusive working environment
• Understand the impact our biases have in the workplace and in the people and information assessment decisions we make
• Leverage our influence as leaders for proactive, progressive and positive working culture, talent identification and development
• Honestly assess our knowledge gaps and biased approaches to un-earth a key set of implementable actions to improve the culture of inclusion and sustainable success
• Come away with practical tools & methodologies to underpin your understanding of D&I
• Commit to immediate and implementable actions at an individual and Board level.
