This interactive workshop series is designed to create deeper understanding of the meaning and value of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). The first workshop offers a foundation for defining diversity, equity and inclusion, along with the unconscious obstacles to meaningful DEI. The second workshop provides actionable strategies to creating a DEI-focused work environment. The third workshop focuses on determining how to improve client perception of the organization’s DEI brand and including clients as DEI advocates.
