DEI training is imperative for organizations that want to create and sustain inclusive environments. Our philosophy at KEIRUS BY KJE is to incorporate training with a pro-business approach to drive commerce, culture, and community. To foster inclusion with a return on investment, organizations must not settle for a one-and-done approach that checks the box or makes the finish line the primary focus. Impactful DEI training is taught in phases, over time, to yield sustained transformation. We use a multi-phase approach to DEI training using our KEIRUS platform and throughout our instructor-led sessions because we realize the importance of intentional engagement during the learning curve. The check-the-box approach does not support this process or enhance retention, leading to systemic gaps in creating belonging and equitable workspaces.
