SBLR-5010 : Diversity and Inclusion for Sport Management

Students will identify the dimensions of diversity that matter most in organizations and why as well as examine the difference between diversity and inclusion. They will learn to recognize unconscious bias, stereotypes, and prejudices that can influence behavior within a workgroup. They will explore how to identify interventions that can help override judgment and decision-making errors due to biases. Finally, they will explore ways to foster an inclusive and equitable workplace climate through social connections, openness to learning, and a commitment to growth in DEI at the organizational, supervisor, and individual levels.
