Inclusion Insights: The Power of Culture - with Dr. Steve Robbins

Inclusion Insight 3: The Power of Culture looks at the impact of culture on our thinking and behavior. As Dr. Robbins explains, "We live in socially constructed realities: realities created by our limited experiences and acquired knowledge. Many of these realities are non-neutral - that is, they favor one or some groups over another or others." The Inclusion Insights micro-learning offers a unique perspective on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). The modules feature Dr. Steve Robbins, a nationally recognized trainer and consultant on the topics of implicit bias, allyship, bystander intervention and microaggressions. He challenges and motivates people with his storytelling, humor and extensive knowledge. The inclusiveness and power of Dr. Robbins' message are why organizations such as Boeing, Pepsico, McDonald’s, Disney, NASA, Toyota call on him to inspire, educate and prepare their people for the challenges of the 21st-century workplace. In this series, Dr. Robbins shares his concept of “Unintentional Intolerance,” which has won wide acclaim from audiences and organizations across the country. This approach does NOT blame or point fingers. Instead, it challenges individuals and organizations to be more open-minded and intentional about inclusion and to value people for their unique gifts, abilities and experiences. This course provides a foundation for your diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) work to promote allyship, bystander intervention, and inclusive leadership.
