Reimagine an Inclusive Workplace: Considering the Potential

by
COVID 19

An SIIA & Orange Grove Consulting Webinar

 

COVID-19 and a heightened focus on racial injustice have disrupted the world and our country, and it can be daunting to try to think about a ‘new normal’, let alone prepare for one. That’s why we partnered with Orange Grove Consulting to explain how companies can use this opportunity to reimagine their workplace for the better with the incorporation of inclusive values. 
 
Inclusion in the workplace involves offering appropriate support to employees in an individual and equitable fashion, ensuring equal representation and consideration of all employees, and meaningfully accommodating remote workers during these unprecedented times. Studies show that inclusive workplaces enjoy lower employee turnover and higher returns, but how do you get there? In this webinar, Orange Grove Co-Founder Jodi Detjen explains how companies can utilize design-thinking exercises to create a new vision for diversity and inclusion.  By approaching inclusivity in the same way any organizational change, businesses can define goals, empower change, and measure results. 

For those interested in diving deeper into diversity & inclusion in the workplace, SIIA is excited to offer our members an exclusive workshop series with Orange Grove Consulting, Reimagine an Inclusive Workplace: Creating the Plan. Through a combination of interactive webinars, self-guided lessons, and peer-group coaching, participants will be guided through the process of creating and implementing a new vision for inclusion in their workplace.   Please see this flyer for full details.
