Learning Program

Everyday Inclusion

While many employees have good intentions and aspire to be inclusive, they often encounter opportunities for improvement in their everyday interactions and impact on others. 'Everyday Inclusion' is a learning experience designed to help employees move from awareness to action by equipping them with essential knowledge and tools to foster inclusivity. 

The program delves into the five dimensions of inclusive behaviors derived from the 'Inclusive Behaviors Inventory'. Guided by skilled facilitators, it provides actionable recommendations and adaptable content that seamlessly integrates with a company's existing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives. 

What makes ‘Everyday Inclusion’ unique?

Blended learning design: An efficient blended learning program that fits busy schedules and rapidly equips participants to comprehend barriers to inclusion and the actions necessary to be an inclusive colleague.

Measurable Progress: Participants can track their development by comparing their inclusive behaviors before and after the program using the Inclusive Behavior Inventory.

Global Learning Community: As part of the program, all participants receive a complimentary quarterly membership to DEI Club, granting access to a wide range of learning resources and opportunities that extend far beyond the “Everyday Inclusion” programme itself.
