Fostering Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace, Goodwin College of Professional Studies Course Description: Diversity in the workplace has moved beyond calculating a broad range of employee demographics. Employers are focusing on including and elevating diverse voices and diverse perspectives at the table to create more innovative services and products to gain a competitive edge. Abundant evidence demonstrates that diverse teams are more creative and productive than those characterized by homogeneity. But, inclusion cannot happen in a vacuum. Leadership must foster and support diversity and inclusion to create an environment where all employees are empowered to be productive and innovative. Students will begin with a historical look at workplace diversity and inclusion, and examine companies with varying degrees of success in fostering diversity and inclusion--and consumer trust-- learning from successes/failures. This course takes a practical approach, asking students to analyze scenarios drawn from real life to apply best practices and gain skills needed to demonstrate teamwork and leadership capabilities in today's workforce.
