INCLUSIVE L&D, LONG OVERDUE

There is a concerning disconnect in L&D in the way diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) is approached. Whereas L&D may offer separate DE&I programs, such as unconscious bias training, DE&I is neglected in the regular (f.e. functional, leadership, soft skills) programs. L&D fails to consider whether these programs are equitable and inclusive, and whether all learners, irrespective of, for example their gender or ethnicity, have an equal opportunity for learning success. Research highlights this is problematic and hampers meeting organisations’ DE&I objectives. As L&D we need to do better!

Key takeaways:

  • An understanding of what DE&I means, specifically in L&D
  • An understanding of how social categories such as gender and ethnicity play a role before, during and after a training
  • Reflection questions to understand whether your L&D strategy and programs are equitable and inclusive
