Dr. Shirley Davis - Diversity, Equity & Inclusion For Dummies

Creativity, social and emotional intelligence, critical thinking, and complex reasoning are noted skills that are increasingly vital in every workplace role. These skills are also essential to fostering and maintaining a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace. The need to focus on building these skills along with technological skills is leading workplaces to require workers with a variety of skills and to make the worthwhile investment in broadening those skills.

Following are three tips for helping underskilled workers to build essential skills:

Expand experiential learning opportunities through technical simulation training, on the job training, and apprenticeships. Add AI and virtual reality to immersive learning experiences.

Build individuals and institutions. Focus on the professional development workers as individuals that have broad skills bases. Incentivize achievements at the individual and team/department levels.

Empower learners and those in more vulnerable categories, such as older workers and lower-skill roles. Create career pathways and professional development/learning plans. Support workers through grant programs and tuition reimbursement for lifelong learning. Provide training in modular and creative ways that fit the individual learner’s lifestyle.
