Course Description

Embracing and cultivating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in the workplace is Ethics at Work. 

According to the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), organizational diversity now includes more than just racial, gender, and religious differences. It also encompasses different thinking styles and personality types, as well as other factors such as physical and cognitive abilities and sexual orientation, all of which influence the way people perceive the world. Finding the right mix of individuals to work on teams, and creating the conditions in which they can excel, are key business goals for today's leaders, given that collaboration has become a paradigm of the twenty-first-century workplace.

This online CPE course explores ethical values and principles related to these initiatives and examines workplace behaviors, both individually and collectively that foster and promote organizational well-being. 

Major topics discussed in this online CPE/CPD webinar:

• Overview of Ethics
