Full course description
Inclusive cultures bring cultural awareness, belonging, and mental health to the forefront. Cultural awareness supports inclusivity because it empowers employees to work effectively with people from different demographics. With cultural awareness, organizations can foster a culture of belonging, facilitate collaboration, encourage decision-making, and support employee engagement. A culture of belonging includes employees being their authentic selves. Organizations encourage workplace authenticity and belonging when they support mental health initiatives, foster resilience, and create environments where employees are comfortable discussing mental health challenges.
