Module description

Our societies fail to ensure equality and equity for all. As a result, many people, through no fault of their own, are systemically disadvantaged. Although these problems are often structural in nature—an injustice that must be rectified—how can leaders harness social-scientific theories and methods to create positive change in their organisations and help employees adaptively navigate barriers to their success? This module will provide students with the knowledge to identify, understand, and address social injustices in organizations. It will also give students actionable, evidence-based tools for addressing these problems to ensure that organizations are diverse, equitable, and inclusive so that their members can thrive.
