About the course

Organizations that manifest a culture of acknowledging diversity, and commitment to principles of equity and practices of inclusion, thrive in today’s world. As prior research has shown, this culture of commitment fuels employee engagement as well as employee creativity and innovation. Critically, today’s business and society at large require organizations to be responsive to social justice calls and create equitable, diverse, and inclusive workplace and business practices. As such, organizations and their leaders are in a unique position to be a driver of this social change and consequently contribute to a better workplace. However, significant disagreement continues to exist regarding how to best generate such environments and how individuals can serve as true allies to traditionally under-represented groups.

　　Beyond the business case, the moral argument for developing diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplaces has gained greater salience within organizations and in civil society more generally. The aim of the specialization in Leading Equitable, Diverse, and Inclusive Organizations is to create graduates that have the mindset, the vocabulary, and the skills that are needed to build organizational cultures and develop workplace policies that manifest a steadfast commitment to principles of equity and practices of community building.
