Institutional Strategies To Combat Racism

Racism, in one form or another, exists within every company. The first step in addressing racism is acknowledging its existence. Before implementing sweeping institutional measures designed to stamp out racism, you must first understand what such measures would involve. An institutional strategy or policy is applicable to all levels of management, all departments, and all employees. In short, eliminating racism must become the responsibility of everyone in the organization. This course explains the responsibility leaders must take on to combat racism.

A company may have an ideal strategy to combat racism, but that strategy cannot succeed if the company’s environment does not promote compliance. While systems, strategies, and goals are integral to the fight against racism, even more important is the company’s culture. This includes individuals’ attitudes, values, and behaviors. Your strategy must be supported financially as well, which you will learn about here. Diversity initiatives are also key in fighting racism, but they must be specifically tailored to each underrepresented community.

Eliminating racism is a continual business objective. There is always room for improvement and growth. Utilize the materials provided in this on-demand video and understand how you can best combat racism in your organization.
