Diversity Equity Inclusion: Considerations for Managing Diverse Teams

During these times of unrest, it is paramount to the success of the rental housing industry that we are careful and thoughtful of each other, especially our colleagues, customers and in our communities. Their well-being is incumbent on the creation and maintenance of a more inclusive and respectful environment in and around the rental housing industry.
 
In this webinar, Dr. Robert (Bob) Crouch, Director for Diversity and Inclusion at Duke University, will discuss how diversity, equity and inclusion are important principles for leaders and rental housing professionals to follow. From implicit bias impacting hiring practices to identifying the characteristics of an inclusive leader, participants will be given the tools to facilitate the personal and organizational development of a diverse, equitable and inclusive organization. We are in this together and we will get through this together.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:

  • How to create and foster a culture of respect and cultural competence 
  • How to describe and discuss the hiring process and its implications
  • Blind spots on how unconscious bias impacts our decisions and choices
