Innovate for equity, diversity, and inclusion with evidence, behavioural insights, and business design. Achieving inclusion is a top priority for most organizations today. However, despite system wide attempts to improve inclusion, there has been little tangible progress and poorly designed interventions have even resulted in unintended consequences. For example, some organizations that implemented mandatory diversity training had 6% fewer black women in management positions after five years. At the individual level, backlash effects can occur if trainees resent being selected for diversity training and view training as punishment for prior insensitive behaviour. To be successful, inclusion innovations need to be user-centric, easy to adopt and evidence-based. By understanding barriers to inclusion from a user-centric lens, we can better design policies and process that actually work. The First of Its Kind There are breakthroughs available at the intersection of behavioural insights, data analytics and design thinking. The Rotman School of Management combines the latest in inclusion research, behavioural insights, design, and data analytics to deliver a unique program to innovate for inclusion over 6 half-day sessions. This program includes: -Why current initiatives fail -Real data on which practices work and which don't -Workshops on live challenges -Hands-on exercises designing new initiatives Inclusion by Design is for leaders and organization looking for disruptive ways to design, implement, and evaluate inclusion practices that actually work. Whether it's hiring, retention, or compensation, use a new approach to move past acceptance to true inclusion so you can engage, energize, inspire, and benefit from diversity with greater success.
