ENABLING EQUITY
Strategies and Structures that Drive Transformation
Enabling equity Program Description
Once we have a plan for building our own inclusive practices as individual managers and leaders, the next step is to look to our broader organizations. How can we build true EDI transformation that will affect all aspects of our work together?
This course will guide you through analyzing your broader organizational culture, identifying points that need change, and finding the path to get from here to there. You will work through the details of strategy, structure, and culture, learn how each aligns with the others, and find the tools you need to lead organizational transformation.
Here we have assembled our best thinking and tools in the specific areas of strategy, structures, and culture. If you are part of a cohort of colleagues looking to design your next steps for an inclusive organization, this is the course for you.
