Overview:

Creating an inclusive work environment is at the core of promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Notably, businesses with robust DEI strategies have a significant competitive advantage in this highly volatile market. Today, more companies are focused on implementing strong organizational diversity to the fore. However, while they are targeting effective DEI initiatives, it is crucial to ensure that internal and external systems and processes are aligned with DEI perspectives to avoid futile DEI efforts.

Key topics that will be covered in this course are:

  • DEI Strategies: Notable Trends and Developments
  • Critical Issues and Challenges in Implementing Equitable Systems
  • Boosting Diversity in the Workplace
  • Strategic Role of DEI Reporting
