Promoting Inclusive Organizational Culture: Impactful Allyship and Engagement

This course examines how to reimagine and reshape organizational culture in more inclusive ways. It first explores how to practice meaningful allyship, leverage your privilege in service of others and counter microaggressions with micro acts of courage. Building on this, you will consider organizational culture through the lens of engagement by focusing on ways to highlight cultural contribution and promote inclusivity through making every story matter.

• The ability to practice meaningful allyship in your organizational context and how privilege can be used to benefit others.
• Microaggressions and their impact on members of equity-deserving groups and how privilege can be leveraged to counter these microaggressions.
• The Attitude Spectrum and where your organization's culture falls on it.
• Cultural fit and cultural contribution in day-to-day engagement and the impact of operationalizing cultural contribution from recruitment to retention.
• The ability to reflect on how the organizational aspiration for engagement can be met by making every story matter.
