Course Description
This course is made available through the eLearnAfrica and FutureLearn partnership.
Challenge microaggressions in the workplace and practise inclusive leadership
Microaggressions are everyday actions or behaviour that communicate hostile, offensive, or disrespectful messages towards a person or group based on an aspect of their identity.
On this four-week course from the London Race Strategy Team and the NHS Leadership Academy, you’ll learn what microaggressions look like, and what you can do to challenge them in any healthcare facility.
Understand microaggressions and their consequences for individuals, teams, and organisations
Microaggressions are subtle and can often be overlooked. Nonetheless, they have severe consequences for the emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing of individuals affected.
You’ll start by learning how to identify microaggressions, before exploring the impact they have on individuals and organisations.
Develop a toolkit for dealing with microaggressions at work
Once you know how to spot a microaggression, you’ll gain the skills you need to challenge it.
Applying theories of inclusion and allyship, you’ll take away key action items that you can implement in your own workplace.
Train with leaders in equality, diversity, and inclusion
Your guides on this course are a team of experts from the London Race Strategy Team and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. They’ll present concrete examples of microaggressions in healthcare contexts, focusing specifically on race, disability, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
Learning from these examples, you’ll discover what it means to create an equal and inclusive working environment.
This course is designed for managers and supervisors working in healthcare facilities. The third in a series of training sessions on equality, diversity, and inclusion in medical services, it will help you to develop core inclusive leadership skills.
Certificate cost may vary. You will be redirected to the host page for cost and payment options.
