Diversity and Inclusion (e-learning)

1.5-hour e-learning course

According to ‘Diversity Best Practices’, inclusion involves utilizing difference to benefit an organization. A study of the global aviation industry in 2016 reported that there was a significant amount of work to be done in incorporating diversity and inclusion practices into airline corporate culture. The study of 73 airlines also found that whilst the value of diversity was acknowledged, inclusiveness was not a core competence of the business. Those airlines who understand the value of diversity and inclusion have been able to seek out previously unrecognized opportunities and boost operational productivity and effectiveness. This course will enable you to understand the importance of diversity and inclusion and the economic and intangible benefits of an inclusive corporate culture.
