Belonging is an archetypal experience that we all seek. In the workplace, a sense of belonging will only happen if you have both diversity and inclusion. When you facilitate diversity in hiring practices and instill inclusive policies, procedures and behaviors, your organization has its best chance of creating a culture that supports a sense of belonging for everyone.  


Diversity is a fact. Inclusion is a behavior. Belonging is an experience. Diversity is a fact in that you can look around you and note that there are people like yourself alongside people who aren’t like you. Inclusion, meanwhile, is a set of behaviors, frameworks or approaches that promote psychological safety and connectedness among team members.

How to become aware of your own social conditioning and dismantle internalized racism, sexism, heterosexism and ableism 
What inclusive policies, practices and behaviors within the organizational infrastructure lead to a culture of belonging
What you should be measuring to determine whether you have a culture of belonging in your workplace 
What key takeaways from the psychology of belonging inform how to impact workplace performance 
And so much more!
