Workplace Application: Learn how to take diversity to the next level: equity. Learn the four-phase process that will move an organization from diversity to a culture of equity.

For decades, organizations have aspired to make their workforce more diverse. Many have been successful in creating a more diverse workforce; however, they now face the bigger challenge of making their workplace equitable. The four phases included in making your organization more equitable are: Courageous Leadership, Courageous Conversation, Courageous Action and Courageous Commitment. Learn how to gain buy-in at the C-suite level, transition diversity into equity, create a strategic equity plan, institute accountability at all levels of the organization and implement systemic strategies that ensure equity.
