As ways of working shift and develop, it is important that the understanding of what it means to be an inclusive workplace develops too. Whether teams are working in an in-person, remote or hybrid environment, everyone has a role to play in making that place of work a positive and safe space for everyone. Inclusion is not just about formal policies, but about the mindset and actions we take into our workplace every day.

This workshop will examine the difference between inclusion and diversity, while exploring the importance of creating a culture of inclusivity within the workplace, both for the business and the individual.

There will be space to discuss and explore the themes that both detract from and encourage inclusive behaviours, along with practical ideas on how to build more inclusivity.

Ultimately, this workshop will support individuals to develop their understanding of inclusive working and lay the foundations for building a truly inclusive team culture.
