Design a practical operating method for equal employment opportunity policy that fits the organisation's size and maturity.
Designing Equal Employment Opportunity Policies
Develop the judgement and the documentation needed to run equal employment opportunity policy properly.
Course Overview
A process for equal employment opportunity policy that managers quietly work around has already failed. The organisation's reputation as an employer is built or lost through opportunity policy. The programme is built to be used, and every section of this part of people management and development it covers ends in something applicable. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place equal employment opportunity policy among the areas with the widest performance spread. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for this area of people management and development, not for observers of it. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of opportunity policy and prepares them for it. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about equal employment opportunity policy. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting opportunity policy and under-invest in testing it. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to the people management and development discipline that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
