Description

Diversity within a group is a positive asset benefitting decision making, productivity, creativity, and learning. One task of a leader is to work to overcome negative beliefs, behaviors, and unconscious attitudes that oppress non-dominant group members. This course will use historical, sociological, ethical, and psychological perspectives to develop practical skills towards this end.
