Curriculum
- Course pre-work utilizing the Council Diversity Study Maturity Index to self-assess, change management tools
- Four half-day interactive webcast seminars on key learnings: Inclusion Journey, Unconscious Bias, Talent Pipeline and Retention, Business Case for Building and Sustaining facilitated by Accenture
- Coaching and mentorship
- Two executive plenary sessions with executive sponsor
- Required final report outlining plan for internal integration
- Create common goals: Common goals create common bonds, if everyone doesn’t move forward at the same time, the initiative will fail.
- Confront unconscious bias: Everyone has unconscious biases that originate in the brain – the amygdala, to be precise. This part of the brain reacts strongly when it sees pictures of races different from its owner. Recognizing the tribal nature of people and working with it (see above: create common goals) can help remove this “other-ness” response.
- Focus on inclusion: Inclusion goes beyond just hiring for diversity. Inclusion actively seeks out, embraces, and encourages different ways of approaching and solving problems.
- Move away from prohibitive language: Introduce the idea of choosing to lean into a diverse workplace instead of demanding or requiring that all employees accept each other
