Beyond Picture Perfect Diversity: How to Create a Sense of Inclusion
Presented by: Dima Ghawi, Dima Ghawi, LLC.
Many organizations view diversity as a statistical goal, achieved by strategic hires and exemplified by a picture-perfect workplace. However, a diverse team without ties of inclusion and acceptance fails to fully harness the true advantages of diversity. In this session, Dima Ghawi shares information she has gleaned from hundreds of interviews and workplace surveys to teach leaders and business professionals how to create a welcoming and inclusive workforce. Through humorous stories and engaging group activities, Dima highlights the insight of a bottom-up approach, the influence of courageous office culture, and the power of affinity groups. Session participants will leave with actionable takeaways which can be employed to create a more productive, engaging, and inclusive workplace for all.
