Minor content
This minor focusses on D&I in a professional context and deals with topics such as leadership, effective communication and social safety. By scrutinizing organizational structures, D&I policy development and implementation, you are introduced to the role D&I plays in organisations. Subsequently, you will dive deeper into the topic by reviewing D&I from different points of view, such as from the perspective of an employee, (in)formal leader, support staff, manager/director, client, student or patient. By exploring different ethical dilemmas, threats and resistance, you will enhance your understanding of these dynamics and their effects on the performance of organisations, teams and individuals.
