Diverse and Inclusive Workplaces in India
Times are changing - women, people with
disabilities and transgenders want to be
financially independent and organisations are
understanding the value of gender diversity. Soon
the society and organisations will hire more
women, transgenders and people with disabilities
and make workplaces diversified. With the
changing workforce scenario, it is only
imperative that the work environment gears up to
accommodate and provide a congenial environment.
Therefore, educating, training and empowering
your team helps in achieving inclusiveness.

Programs on Unconscious Biases
A country like India, which has diverse
geographies, religions, practices, communities,
languages and is a patriarchal society, biases
are the name of the game. We are instilled with
it at home, at school, by religion. We are not
aware of it and believe what we do is a part of
us.
Our programs on unconscious bias, not only helps
in examining these biases, but also helps in
understanding the effects of these biases. The
workshop aims to instill a new thought process in
employees to work without such biases.
