Overview

How do you make your workplace a welcoming place for everyone? Showing that diversity and inclusion are important to the organization will go a long way in showing your dedication to all employees. 

The benefits of having an inclusive culture are wide-ranging, from increased productivity and job satisfaction to improved customer service. 

Perhaps the greatest benefit to providing agency-wide diversity and inclusion training is employee retention. When you focus on both diversity and inclusion and show employees that they’re welcome in your organization, they are more likely to stay since employees who feel underappreciated or left out are more likely to be unhappy and, ultimately, leave. As this course teaches, creating an inclusive environment is the responsibility of everyone at an agency. 

Learning Objectives
