After two highly attended editions of the Inclusive Behavior Training at AOM in 2020 and in 2023, this PDW will be offered again to help participants understand what it takes to create truly inclusive organizations. Decades of research on diversity and inclusion has established that inclusion is crucial for diversity to thrive. However, to date there is very little insight in how to “do” inclusion. That is, most research focuses on practices and leadership, but very little on specific behaviors underlying experiences of in- and exclusion. Based on the principles of experiential learning, in this training we simulate a psychologically safe environment in which participants can display as well as experience inclusive and exclusive behaviors. Participants will reflect on their experiences during the simulation and how its insights relate to the workplace. This reflection will first take place in small groups, and then plenary. Participants as well as facilitators will share lessons learned regarding what type of behaviors relate to experiences of inclusion and exclusion. The PDW will result in actionable suggestions regarding how to behave more inclusively and create more inclusive workplaces.
