SEDI 2020 Part 2: Creating Inclusive Workplaces

​Understanding diversity and learning how to manage its complexity is, perhaps, among the most important challenges we face today. The need to remove barriers and understand the changing nature of the workforce and our communities is paramount. To this end, the workshop will examine the need for creating diverse and inclusive work environments.

​Some key questions/concepts we will consider:

​· What is diversity? · Why talk about diversity? · Diversity Myths · Self-Awareness · Stereotypes we have · Workplace Biases · How do these biases and stereotypes affect my interactions with others? · From Diversity to Inclusion · Ways to create an inclusive work environment
