MANAGING DIVERSITY
This one day workshop will enhance managers' understanding of diversity, equipping them with the skills they need to effectively manage diversity. Delegates will participate in practical exercises that demonstrate how their existing management skills can be applied to diversity. The workshop will increase managers' existing knowledge of diversity issues, looking at the Business Case for Diversity and discussing recent updates to employment law such as the Employment Equality Regulations covering Sexual Orientation and Religion or Belief. The workshop will look at live workplace simulations allowing delegates to practise the skills they need to ensure they harness the diversity within their teams and mainstream diversity awareness into their Performance Management Systems.
What is the Aim of the workshop?
The workshop will enable participants to:
Have a raised awareness of diversity management
Have increased confidence and understanding to manage differences in relation to performance assessment
Recognise the potential impact of behaviour, both conscious and unconscious, and how this relates to good practice
Begin to identify actions needed to ensure all staff members are managed effectively and fairly
Who should participate?
This one day workshop is for managers who require practical skills to manage diversity effectively as well as an increased understanding of diversity issues within the workplace.
