Global Perspectives of DEI in the Workplace

University of Colorado Boulder

In this three-course specialization, you will engage in the process of examination, self-reflection, and action to advance equity, diversity, and inclusion (DEI) through a global lens. The first course focuses on reflecting on how personal identity and background have shaped thoughts, actions, and relationships while exploring historical narratives and power structures. The second course emphasizes building a toolkit for creating transformational change through leadership in the workplace. The final course guides learners on applying what they have learned to make lasting change for themselves and their interactions with others.

Throughout the specialization, participants will analyze the historical narrative of institutions and institutional structures that have shaped inclusion and exclusion, assess how transformational leadership is enacted for DEI in a multifaceted global atmosphere, critically examine and reflect on their identity, background, and experiences, and investigate practical methods for integrating DEI in the workplace.
