The talented, results-driven team at Anima Leadership has a brand-new workshop offering: Measuring Workplace Diversity and Inclusion Practices, on May 23rd, 2013 in downtown Toronto. I frequently work with organizations that struggling to become more inclusive, diverse and reflective of the communities they serve. The team at Anima Leadership is simply brilliant at this work, fusing the latest research from neuroscience, psychology, prejudice reduction, organizational development and mindfulness with proven practices for sustaining organizational performance. Now they’ve surveyed the latest smart practices research on recruitment, retention and advancement in order to develop unique diversity instruments for measuring inclusion in the workplace. Assess where your organization is at and where it wants to go using the Anima Inclusive Workplace Toolkit.
In this workshop you will learn:
- What gets in the way of establishing a diverse and inclusive organization.
- Leadership competencies for developing Diversity Champions including emotional intelligence, mindfulness and authentic connection.
- How unconscious bias results in “blind spots” within all individuals and organizations and the importance of developing bias detection and management skills.
- How to apply the Anima Inclusive Organizational Practices Continuum using seven factors for measuring organizational change with respect to diversity, equity and inclusion.
For anyone on the East Coast and/or in the Toronto area (or beyond), this will be a fantastic workshop. Click here for more information.
