Equality, Diversity & Inclusion for Team Members

Who Should Attend

Team members who need to be aware of, and carry out, their responsibilities in line with legislation and organisational policies.

Overview

For employees to be fully motivated they need to feel part of an organisational culture where they experience giving and receiving mutual respect daily; where they have equal access to development opportunities and can fully contribute to the success of the organisation.
This highly participative workshop creates a supportive learning environment that enables participants to understand and apply the main principles of Equality, Diversity & Inclusion legislation. They will know the extent to which these principles apply to just about every aspect of organisational life; they will know what they should be able to expect and also what is expected of them and why. This is likely to have a positive effect on motivation and thus enhance team effectiveness.
