Executive Workshop - Breaking Barriers & Building Inclusion
Join us for an exclusive Executive Workshop for C-suite leaders and executives in design, engineering, infrastructure and construction.
• Retaining diversity, talent & skills? Integrating DEI in your business
• What are our competitors doing? Workplace trends fostering inclusion
• Where to start? Who to involve? Building your diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) program
• What gets in the way of DEI? Assumptions, biases, systemic barriers
With support from the NSW Government’s Women in Construction program, Consult Australia’s Breaking Barriers and Building Inclusion Executive Workshop offers a deep-dive into practical tools and resources. This workshop is tailored to help leaders and their executives working across design, engineering, infrastructure or construction take the next steps appropriate for their business.
Through this interactive 1-day workshop leaders and their executives will learn how to develop and/or improve the effectiveness of their DE&I strategies and programs to co-create safe, respectful and inclusive cultures.
Key topics include:
• Understanding the latest global research and best practices.
• Considering the commercial and personal benefits to workplace DEI.
• Understanding the key barriers impeding progress: assumptions, socially and culturally conditioned biases, systems.
• Reflecting on how beliefs and behaviours are formed—particularly regarding the role of men and women in the workplace and beyond—and how they foster or inhibit inclusion.
• Exploring threats and opportunities
• Surface informed, measurable solutions to overcome challenges and create a culture where everyone has equal opportunity to thrive.
What our clients think about the program - “I’m most proud of the changes I’ve seen from our managers following their participation in the Co-creating Inclusive Cultures program. The changes these managers apply, both in thought and action resulting from greater understanding of how biases inadvertently play out, have been many and positive.” - James Phillis, CEO, SMEC & Chair, Consult Australia Champions of Change
