Inclusive Behaviour
Course Introduction
With diversity a prominent topic in the media, and the benefits of an inclusive workplace widely discussed and documented, many organisations are exploring what inclusion and diversity mean for them. There may be some fear around these topics. Employees can feel uncertain about what it is acceptable to say and do.
What will
participants learn?
​Our workshop for colleagues is highly engaging and interactive. We quickly get to the heart of some of the terminology and definitions to create clarity. Recognisable examples and scenarios are discussed, and we invite input from the participants to make it real. Practical tips and actions are shared to help your individual contributors plan ways to behave more inclusively in their day-to-day relationships and interactions.
This workshop is relevant to all colleagues, of any seniority.
