Courageous Inclusion™ online overview

Creating a diverse and inclusive workforce can foster higher employee engagement, increase creativity, and attract new talent, customers, and investors. But many organizations that have decided to make progress in their DEI efforts face unexpected challenges.

These efforts often increase awareness of diversity and inclusion issues and build empathy among those in privilege, but they don’t yield measurable improvements. Even people who are more aware of DEI gaps and their own unconscious biases struggle to make progress in creating more diverse and inclusive environments.

Blanchard understands how important it is to provide your people with a way to confidently and safely raise DEI issues to create a more inclusive workplace. Building awareness and getting people familiar with DEI terminology isn’t enough to effect lasting change.

That’s why we created Courageous Inclusion™ based on diversity and inclusion expert Jennifer Brown’s proven developmental continuum. Courageous Inclusion teaches people a mindset that promotes diversity and inclusion as well as a process to become more knowledgeable and active proponents of inclusion in their workplace.
