DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION & CULTURAL COMPETENCE TRAINING
Understanding and meeting diverse needs and creating inclusive environments stems from being culturally competent.
To meet the needs of culturally diverse groups, we must engage in the process of becoming culturally competent. Cultural Competence is a set of consistent behaviors, attitudes, and policies that come together in a system, organization, or among professionals and enables that system, organization, or those professionals to work effectively in cross cultural situations.
1.
Creating safe spaces for employees to have a dialogue and share experiences. Case studies, scenario based, real life examples of both formal/informal and “self-managed” approaches to invoke understanding and appreciation for all organizational individuals.
2.
Unconscious Bias Training- The Challenge- We realize that training is not always effective at encouraging people to confront and interrogate their biases. This training uses unique approaches that engage safe spaces and opportunities for the voluntary sharing of lived experiences. Through storytelling, personal narratives, case studies, short videos, simulations, and scenarios this training achieves an effective outcome for addressing unconscious bias.
3.
Creating safe spaces enabled participants to open their hearts and minds to compassion and new learning. Many employees have limited understanding of diversity/ diverse groups. This often leads to incorrect assumptions and negative stereotypes. Through Cultural Competency development, participants learn how to understand their own perceptions, worldviews, assumptions, biases so they can make more conscious hiring decisions, promotions, workplace interactions and decisions in their personal lives.
4.
Completion of pre/post assessments as a measure of learning and appreciation/understanding of differences.
5.
Obtain Voluntary Written feedback included messages on: “what will I do differently” or “which behavior will I change as of today”
Focusing on self-awareness, self-reflection, and reduction of bias, perceptions, and assumptions.
Significant research demonstrates that all humans engage in conscious and unconscious processes based on images stored in memory
Our years of subconscious associations affect what we think we see, how we react, how we feel, and how we behave. “Any effort to build inclusion … has to address our perceptions (and biases). This takes time … but is also more like to endure.”
Benefit from Innov8Change Advisory Group’s Developmental Model of Intercultural Sensitivity that will help training participants better understand the process by which they can learn to include, value, and respond respectfully to people of all cultures.
