Synopsis

Have you ever wished you had an exceptional resource to help you with the setup and strategic development of a sustainable diversity and inclusion program... Well your wish has come true! Based on the values and principles of Second Generation Diversity Training™ (SGDT™) this book walks the reader through the process for designing a diversity and inclusion program that really can work for your organization. The four steps the reader explores are:
- Understanding if we are ready for diversity and inclusion and if not, how do we get ready?
- Being clear about how to design a strategy that works for your organization s unique culture?
- How to decide what type of training programs will support the strategy?
- Consider ways to make diversity and inclusion sustainable?

SGDT™ is about creating cultures of excellence through the practices of inclusion. It is about developing skills that offer everyone an opportunity to have a seat and a say. Second generation diversity training is about how to explore truths beyond our normal conditioning so that we may all enjoy the fruits of hard work, innovative practices, and creative energy that bring the very best into the workplace and into society. SGDT© is about building the type of skills that make our workplaces havens of energy, excitement and commitment versus places of fear, entropy, and doubt.
