The simplest definition of diversity is “a range or variety of different things”. In the context of D&I, diversity refers to “the traits and characteristics that make people unique” which include (but are not limited to) race, ethnicity, age, gender, socio-economic class, ability, sexual orientation, and nationality. The summation of these variables combine to create life experiences which shape how a person solves problems, creates, and assesses risk. These are examples of “diversity of thinking” which yields direct and indirect benefits that are foundational to the business case for investments in D&I initiatives.

An inclusive environment is one in which “all individuals are treated fairly and respectfully, feel welcome, have equal access to opportunities and resources, and can contribute fully to the organization’s success".

• What you need to know before you create an anti-racism strategy?

• How to successfully support your strategy for combating institutional racism? 

• What are key steps for successful diversity programs? 

Managers are expected to achieve strategic goals by making the best business judgments possible using limited resources. To do this successfully, they need to be able to budget and forecast.

Digital technologies are an undeniable part of today’s global economy. Digital organizations, like Amazon, have set the standard for the ideal customer experience, and all industries will need to embrace digital technology in order to satisfy customer needs and expectations. Digital Transformation can be defined as Business Transformation enabled through digital technologies, such as mobile, cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, robotics, data analytics, the Internet of Things, and Virtual and Augmented Reality. Within the workplace, as human work shifts to a more knowledge-based, continual learning model, the flexible and agile use of technology will be critical in attracting and retaining top talent. AI, RPA, data analysis tools, and machine learning are speeding repetitive tasks so that human workers can concentrate on activities that are less redundant and more productive and profitable. Organizations that focus on building company-wide cultures that embrace the agile, flexible world of digital technology will reap the benefits as they learn and grow.

• Explain how digital technology resulted in the transformation of customer needs

• Explain the role of digital technology in the transformation of the workforce

• Explain the role of digital technology in the transformation of operations

The modern workplace is often thought of as a strictly professional, rational, logical environment. Cooperation is key--personal opinions and emotions must be put aside in the name of teamwork, which may be easier said than done! No one can expect to connect with fellow colleagues the way they do their own friends or family members. One crossed word or bad mood can damage corporate relations, sometimes irreparably. The uncertainty of the business environment of today, and resulting stress that follows only adds to the pressure workers feel in performing their level best. Feeling overworked and overwhelmed is natural in the workplace, especially when it comes to dealing with change.   The purpose of this course is to illustrate ways you can overcome the emotional barriers you may face in the workplace. This course will guide you through various exercises and give you tips to help you manage your emotions at work so you can perform to the best of your abilities.
