Course overview

Every team carries dimensions of diversity that go beyond what shows up on an organizational chart. Personal histories, professional backgrounds, and individual viewpoints all shape how people work and think. Recognizing those layers across industries, from a construction crew to a hospital care team, changes how a person sees the value already present in a workplace.
