Training & Support for Organizational Leaders

Our Leadership Training and Support Program enables leaders, and by extension, their organizations, to activate effective strategies to advance inclusion, belonging, and accessibility across the organization. This comprehensive program includes self-paced training modules, live processing meetings, and targeted consultation to troubleshoot specific roadblocks.

The Leadership Training and Support Program helps leaders:

• Identify their own gaps in knowledge and awareness that may be standing in the way of their effectiveness in championing inclusion, belonging, and accessibility.
• Possess an advanced-level understanding of concepts and terminology so they feel equipped to lead and effectively participate in important discussions around improving inclusion, belonging, and accessibility.
• Utilize a new toolbox of day-to-day skills and behaviors aimed at fostering more inclusive and welcoming organizations.
• Craft an effective action plan for improvements in the organization.

Employee Training

The goal of organization-wide employee training is to increase employees' understanding of why inclusion matters, develop their vocabulary and fluency around inclusion and accessibility, an identify how they can play a more active role in advancing these values in the organization. Engaging in our training will help employees find a sense of purpose, solidify goals, and feel motivated and empowered to be a change agent for a high-functioning organization where everyone can thrive.

Our organization-wide employee training helps employees:

• Understand how exclusion and oppression operate at individual, institutional, and ideological levels.
  
• Identify how their own life experience and social positions impact their perception.
• Improve their ability to see the world more clearly and empower them to act from this awareness.
• Learn where and how they can apply this new knowledge in both their personal and professional lives to serve as change agents for a more inclusive society.

Anti-Bias Training for Hiring Committees

The goal of anti-bias training is to help hiring committees develop awareness around common problems in reasoning and decision-making that can stand in the way of hiring the best candidate for the job.

Anti-bias training helps hiring committees:
· Develop a deeper understanding of various human biases and why we all have them,
· Learn how biases influence hiring decisions,
· Develop individual countermeasures to mitigate biases, and
· Develop group processes and practices that foster more ethical, effective and rational hiring decisions.
