Half-Day DEI Engagement & Action Workshop
DEI initiatives feeling performative? Move from talk to action by uncovering hidden barriers to inclusion and co-creating solutions.
About this session
Most DEI initiatives lose momentum because they focus on abstract concepts rather than the specific friction points employees face daily. This session moves teams past surface-level awareness by identifying hidden barriers to inclusion and converting those insights into a documented, high-stakes action plan. You leave with a clear roadmap of structural changes and a team that is personally invested in the outcomes.
Why it works
The workshop functions by decentralizing the responsibility for change, requiring participants to co-author the solutions they will be expected to lead. By forcing a rigorous analysis of systemic obstacles before brainstorming, it prevents the group from defaulting to safe, performative gestures that fail to address root causes.
What you’ll walk away with
- Clear actionable outcomes from a 4-step facilitated process
- Increased participant engagement and buy-in
- Documented decisions and next steps
- Improved team alignment on the topic
Who it’s for
HR Leaders, People Ops
