Speaker: Dr. Jermaine Davis, Jermaine M. Davis Seminars & Workshops, Inc.

As the workforce sees the biggest shift in our lifetime, are you focusing on how to recruit and retain employees?  Are you focusing on the right things to make sure your culture is attractive?  Is your organization’s climate friendly or unfriendly to diversity? Does your organization say you are welcoming to diversity when in reality you are not? As a leader, it is imperative all team members learn how to communicate inclusively and work effectively across ALL dimensions of diversity. “Treating everyone the same” may sound logical initially, however it is a plan for disaster and colossal failure within diverse environments. Leading with an inclusive mindset is the key to building culturally inclusive teams and work environments as well as recruiting and retaining employees.

In this engaging and thought-provoking workshop, the instructor teaches leaders how to behave, communicate, and think with an inclusive lens to create an environment that’s respectful of everyone. Identifying leadership blind spots is a key component to moving forward in this area. It’s important to engage in courageous conversations about diversity-related issues. Dr. Jermaine teaches people how to address sensitive issues without feeling awkward, guilty, fearful, or uncomfortable.
