Course details
Belonging is no longer just a nice-to-have, but rather an imperative for organizational success, especially in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world where human beings are an organization's most powerful asset. Furthermore, recent research has shown that a sense of psychological safety is one of the most reliable predictors of revenue growth. So, how do you nurture a safe work environment that allows your workforce to unleash its true, inner potential?
In this course, award-winning executive coach and Duke University professor Sanyin Siang shows you how to go above and beyond diversity and inclusion to proactively help your employees feel like they belong. Discover opportunities and strategies to cultivate—and sustain—this feeling with team members across your entire business. Learn how to build team trust, redirect competitive behavior, maintain a sense of belonging during employee onboarding and exits, make belonging an organization-wide priority, and more.
