In this course, we will walk through four modules: 1. Putting the "I" in DE&I: Before moving to a conversation about what my company can do, it's important to reflect on what more you can do to create and reinforce a more racially diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace. 2. Talking about Race (and Racism) in the Workplace: We all know that inclusion is good for business and building a culture of belonging really comes down to deeper relationships and better communication between staff of different races and ethnicities. 3. Moving beyond Allyship to Sponsorship: Race and racism can be contributing factors to whether you're able to lead and advance in a company, so it's imperative that companies take an intentional approach to implementing relationship-focused interventions (e.g., sponsorship and mentorship) and leveling the field for workers of color. 4. Developing Champions for Racial Equity: There are employees at your company who are ready to lead, and others who are hesitant to engage, so it's key that you identify and develop allies and advocates that can create an organizational culture that feels open, welcoming, inclusive and supportive.
