Today's workforce is diverse; individuals are frequently interacting with peers, managers and customers, each with different backgrounds, experiences, group affiliations, neurodiversity, sexual orientations, religions, and identities. With equity and respect, these differences can enhance performance and creativity; workplace diversity can also help to increase employee and customer engagement, contentment, and inclusion. This course explores ways in which employees and managers can cultivate an inclusive workplace culture and offers means for expanding appreciation of each individual's uniqueness. This course may review paradigms that limit and promote inclusion, such as unconscious biases, behavioral change, leadership, acknowledgement of the dimensions of diversity, and enforcement of patterns by employers, employees, and society as a whole. Recommended: MGMT 566.
