Info:
Are your diversity initiatives netting you excellent and timely results? Are your recruiters, hiring managers, and staff fully aligned about the value of workplace diversity and inclusion? Do you have concerns about managing resistance to diversity in parts of your organization?
Do you ever hear, or wonder if people may be thinking: "Isn't this just lowering the bar?" or "This feels like quotas for hiring." or "Our company is already great, so why does diversity matter, really." or "Hay, we'd hire them, but they're just not there."
The data is clear. There is no lack of talented people of color or women. And diversity, by its very nature, creates the type of conflict that spurs innovation. So, if it's not a pipeline issue, and your company wants a more diverse workplace but is challenged getting there, than what is it?
Welcome to: High Impact Diversity Dialogue.
This first-of-its-kind workshop will show you how to facilitate conversations and deliver experiences that fundamentally shift thinking. You will learn that the business case for diversity involves engaging both the head and the heart. You will understand the types of resistance to diversity and how it manifests in your organization. And going beyond unconscious bias, you'll gain knowledge and approaches to help people throughout the organization manage often uncomfortable beliefs and assumptions about the effect of increasing diversity, and the role and importance of leaders, recruiters, hiring managers and staff in achieving success.
Prepare to leave empowered with new tools, knowledge and insights to help you advance your success and that of your company, by leveraging the power of differences among people.
This event is co-hosted by two experienced and creative innovators in the diversity and inclusion field, Dr. Billy Vaughn of Diversity Training University International and Dr. Barb Adams of GAR (Gender, Age, and Race) Diversity Consulting.
