Inclusion and Diversity Champions

Inclusion and Diversity Champions: Why You Need Them

Inclusion and Diversity Champions are important for your organisation because they role model inclusion. They are the people taking action to ensure your I&D objectives are achieved: they are making inclusion an everyday reality. Inclusion and Diversity Champions accept formal or informal responsibility for supporting, developing and driving inclusion forward.

Senior Champions are champions in specific senior roles: they may be your CEO, Exec Team, Directors or Area Leads. Senior Champions take responsibility for key inclusion and diversity objectives and visibly role model inclusion across the organisation.

Inclusion and Diversity Champions: What You Will Learn

Our Inclusion and Diversity Champions training will equip staff across your organisation with the skills required to deliver your strategic objectives. We will explore and clarify the role of a Champion, tackling any common barriers or challenges and discover how to unlock the influence and impact that Diversity Champions can have in achieving an inclusive culture.

This training will support Inclusion and Diversity Champions too:

• Understanding their role;
• Set objectives and map these against Inclusion and Diversity objectives within your organisation;
• Confidently influence and have impact;
• Succession planning;
• Measuring their success and sharing that knowledge.

Our Senior Champions training covers the areas above and also explores:

• The importance of senior staff role modelling inclusion across the organisation and;
• How being an inclusive champion fits within their leadership style.
