Overview
This virtual course explores the key terms and definitions in the area of diversity, inclusion and cultural awareness – what they mean to us as individuals and to the organisations that we work in. By understanding the business case for diversity and inclusion, as well as the moral and social benefits, you will recognise the practical benefits of transforming your own behaviour and influencing cultural change within your organisation. You will take a close look at the business practices in your organisation and consider how to ensure that no one is unintentionally excluded from any area of working life.
You will also analyse the most common forms of bias that we all experience – how they present themselves and how they affect our thinking and behaviour. This awareness will help you to overcome your own biases, in order to demonstrate inclusive behaviour and build better relationships with people from different cultures.
