Diverse Teams Make Better Decisions up to 87% of the time
Diversity and Inclusion boost the productivity of the business. According to the Harvard Business Review, teams with a lot of cognitive diversity come up with better solutions faster than those who don’t.
According to Gartner, 75% of organizations with diverse decision-making teams are likely to surpass financial targets by 2022.
Despite growing evidence of the benefits of Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion the companies have failed to create a culture where inclusion is embedded in the workplace. This is primarily because of a lack of understanding of DE&I.
This knowledge gap can be reduced by offering various courses on DE&I. E-learning courses that are available are one of the cheapest options to help spread the understanding and benefits of DE&I.
Global Equality Alliance (GEA) has developed a Global Equality Standard and is going to offer a number of courses in the area in collaboration with Klaspad Academy.
A greater understanding of DE&I can only be achieved through mass education. Online and blended learning courses can create a built-in culture of respecting each other and reduce microaggression.
