Diversity, Equity, Inclusion (DEI): A Comprehensive Guide

Did you know that in the United States, companies with high ethnic diversity in their teams are 35% more likely to outperform their competitors? Moreover, according to a study by the Peterson Institute for International Economics, every 1% increase in women's representation on the board of directors translates into a 0.2% increase in net profits.

Numerous economic arguments favor increasing diversity and inclusion in companies. However, challenges remain, among other issues: according to the Human Rights Campaign, 46% of LGBTQ+ employees hide their sexual orientation at work for fear of discrimination; there is still a wage gap (between women and men) in a lot of countries. Unfortunately, such negative examples are plentiful.

The more diverse and inclusive a company is, the more engaged and satisfied its employees will be. And only engaged and satisfied employees can generate engaged and satisfied customers. It's as simple as that!

Therefore, it is worth focusing on these topics.

With great pleasure, I invite you to my intensive course on diversity, inclusion, and unconscious biases!

What topics will we cover during this course?

The course will begin with an introduction to diversity, inclusion, and unconscious biases. The next section will delve into more advanced issues of diversity. Following that, we will explore inclusion in the context of hiring and retention, onboarding and offboarding processes, and organizational culture. We will then examine ways to measure inclusion and diversity and present numerous examples of programs and tools to increase inclusion and diversity within a company. Subsequent topics will include but are not limited to: integrating inclusion and diversity into the company's strategy, fostering empathy, and applying inclusion in everyday life. Later, we will formulate seven principles of an "inclusive" leader and the most important rules for giving and receiving feedback.

We will also tackle unconscious biases, analyzing what they are, their origins, and how they affect our lives and decisions. We will discuss their basic types and present several examples of real-life situations involving unconscious biases. Additionally, we will learn techniques for recognizing them and develop strategies to address them.

There are many topics, but don't worry - I use simple language and illustrate the theory with numerous examples and research results. There is no way we can get bored together!
