3 ways to improve your diversity training

According to a professional diversity trainer and global DEIB impact manager.

When you design a diversity initiative, the obvious goal is to choose diversity training that fits your company’s specific needs. What may be less obvious is that your diversity training choices will reflect more than your code of conduct — they’ll also represent your work culture to your employees on a larger scale. And if people feel like you just need them to check a box, they aren’t likely to be engaged.

So, how can we make diversity training in the workplace interesting, impactful, and something people will actually want to attend? This is a question I’m constantly striving to answer in my role as a diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) manager and trainer — and for good reason. One 2021 report found that although 32% of employers mandated diversity training for employees and 34% mandated it for managers — more on the “mandating” piece of this later, by the way — these efforts largely rang hollow. As many as 80% of companies were just “going through the motions” when it came to DEIB, that report found, with no accountability in place to ensure the impact of these trainings.

Equity vs. equality: a DEIB expert explains the difference

The difference between equity vs. equality is a key concept in DEIB efforts. We tend to use these terms interchangeably in everyday speech, and it’s true that they are close synonyms, both essentially referring to fairness. But the difference between equity vs. equality is, in reality, a fundamental one. It’s a distinction that underpins all social justice work, including our efforts towards building more inclusive workplaces and my own work as a Global DEIB Strategist & Trainer.

Equity is part of a larger process to create a more fair and just society. Today, I’ll define both equity and equality, describe how they intersect and where they differ, and share some real-world examples. I hope to clearly explain how the equity vs. equality DEIB concept can be applied in the workplace as a better business practice.
