Understand how overlapping identities can shape workplace experiences and approaches to inclusion.
A person's workplace experience is not shaped by one identity in isolation. Explore how overlapping identities and systems can interact, and why a single approach to inclusion may miss important barriers.
## Who this course is for
Employees, leaders, HR and inclusion practitioners seeking a more considered approach to workplace equity.
## Topics and learning focus
- The meaning of intersectionality in a workplace context.
- Recognising overlapping experiences of advantage and disadvantage.
- Avoiding assumptions about groups or individual experiences.
- Applying an intersectional perspective to policies, consultation and decisions.
## How this helps at work
Ask whose experience may be absent from a policy or initiative, and consider how consultation can reveal barriers that a broad category alone does not explain.
## Career relevance
Relevant to HR, DE&I, policy development and people leadership. It supports more nuanced analysis rather than providing a qualification to represent the experiences of others.
