INCLUSIVE CULTURE STRATEGY

Certified Diversity Program & Certificate Program
(InCDP & ICS Certificate)

Overview

We know that diverse and inclusive organizations attract and retain talent, drive innovation, enhance overall performance, and contribute to the wellbeing of a society. Yet, each organization has their unique culture, which creates challenges and opportunities to successfully implement sustainable culture-change strategies.

The Inclusive Culture Strategy Certificate and Inclusive Culture Strategy Certified Diversity Program (InCDP) was created by two PhD anthropologists to train others to use a culture-centric approach to foster equity, inclusion, and change.

The programs equip participants with the knowledge, skills, and with toolkits to support or lead in designing, building, and sustaining inclusive organizational cultures. The programs draw on a wide-range of perspectives in business cultures, intercultural communication, systemic inequities, qualitative and quantitative research methods and change management.

Culture is not just for understanding differences in nationality. As such, the ICS courses support professionals navigating political climates by equipping them with cultural competency skillsets that can help them shape organizations into spaces where everyone can feel like they belong.
