Learn how to be an effective ally and champion for diversity at MSU

In honor of Black History Month, we’re taking courses on mindset, communication, and advocacy—Join us!

February 17, 2022 by Debbie Donnellan

In honor of Black History Month, the OTD team is reflecting on and celebrating diversity! We know that organizations reap the benefits of diversity—when employees bring their whole, authentic selves to work. And we know that diverse teams are more productive, innovative, and engaged.

Authenticity at work means sharing and speaking up about work and life experiences that may be different based on one’s identity. Developing the skills to conduct meaningful conversations on potentially polarizing topics such as race, religion, and gender is critical for all professionals, managers, and team leaders at MSU. That’s why we’re highlighting a few of LinkedIn Learning’s best courses surrounding the topic.

Check out these recommendations to get started:

  • Be an Inclusive Organization People Won’t Leave
  • Discussing Racism with Dr. Christina Greer
  • How to Engage Meaningfully in Allyship and Anti-Racism
  • Cultivating Cultural Competence and Inclusion
  • Skills for Inclusive Conversations
  • Unconscious Bias
  • Creating Safe Spaces for Tough Conversations at Work
  • Inclusive Mindset
  • Inclusive Leadership
