Are You Wasting Your Money on Diversity
Training?
by Simma
Lieberman
If you
are planning to spend money on diversity training, WAIT!
You may
be wasting your money if you haven’t done any foundation building. If diversity and
inclusion are not first integrated into your business strategy, very little will change
just by holding one or two day training classes. Organizations in all sectors make this
mistake and don’t realize it until it is too late.
If you want to leverage the diversity you already have, increase the diversity of your
organization, or prevent cultural misunderstandings you need to create a corporate culture
that is inclusive at all levels, and in every system and process.
You can get everyone trained by a great trainer, with a great program, but when people
leave your organization they take what they learned with them (if they still remember it)
and your organization remains the same. Further, reaching resisters and naysayers of
diversity efforts is unlikely only with training—a more multi-faceted approach is needed
to help these individuals see the value of diversity in their organizations and to bring a
greater number of people on board to the initiative.
Read my strategies and steps below that you should consider to truly create an
organization that values diversity. Then, be sure to check out my article, How to Integrate
Diversity Into Your Business Strategy
