Awareness to Action: Level Up as a DEI Change Agent in Your Organization

Are you ready to level up as a change agent and leader? Do you want to make a positive impact on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) at work? You can make the transition from awareness to action, but you need to reshape your practices and behaviors along the way. In this course, Dr. Janice Gassam Asare helps you boost your understanding of DEI in an organizational setting, sharing critical strategies to create lasting social change.

Learn about how power works within an organization, so you can identify it more effectively on the job. Take stock of your own internalized beliefs and how they affect your understanding of different communities. Janice shows you how to recognize, reduce, and respond to microaggressions, tokenization, and exclusionary behavior. Get tips on addressing systemic inequity by centering your efforts with marginalized employees, amplifying the voices of others, and building community-wide coalitions for a more equitable workplace.
