Course Description
Nothing has more of an impact on organizational productivity than creating an environment where everyone is motivated to their best work. And nothing hinders that productivity more than the barriers that limit one’s ability to make that contribution.
- Do your employees feel supported?
- Does everyone get a fair chance at internal opportunities?
- Do leaders and managers recognize employee contributions?
- Do they have the information they need to succeed at their jobs?

Why you should attend
We have been living through greatest workplace disruptions and pace is not going to slow down. Leaders and Managers mindsets and skill sets need to change from managing tasks to managing the full experience of employees. Else the great resignation will shift to the sustained resignation.
In this webinar, LeRoy Thompson, a Harvard Graduate, will help executives, managers, supervisors, and staff:
- To bridge the gap between the will to address diversity, equity, and inclusion and the strategy to get it done.
- You’ll be able to fuse creative ideas with analytical rigor to propose data-driven recommendations to enhance the culture.
- In turn, you can make smart decisions leading to maximized productivity on the inside, and how best to serve the needs of customer, members, constituents and stakeholders on the outside.
At the end of the day the success of any DEI project is to foster whatever changes in behaviors are required to ensure that the workplace embodies organizational values.
It has to be recognized that there are critical stages that need to be addressed or else more damage than benefit can result.
