PRISM's Charting Your Course Diversity & Inclusion Knowledge Map experience, is a dynamic session that enables participants to explore and discover many of the issues surrounding diversity in a non-threatening, almost self-directed way.
The Charting Your Course Diversity &
Inclusion Knowledge Map is a combination of both
PRISM's On Board with Diversity Knowledge MapTM
and the All Hands on Deck Inclusion Knowledge MapTM.
This Map can be positioned from one of three
ways: 1. from an organizational/business
perspective; 2, from a team or individual
perspective; or 3, both 1 and 2.
How the Charting Your Course Diversity & Inclusion Knowledge Map works:
A colorful 3' x 6' visual engages participants immediately in a fun experience, yet it is also a powerful way to create a common mental model that all participants share and
explore. A Script and a Coach guide the session and challenge participants to start making conclusions about what the marketplace and workplace data and information explored in the Map means to them and their organization. All learning through the Map process is generated from an exploration of data and participant perspectives. Unlike presentations or typical learning initiatives, the Map process is extremely interactive and encourages participants to explore key issues regarding diversity and inclusion with their peers.
Typically, the session accommodates 8 to 10 participants around one Map visual. The group going through the process can be expanded to 20 or more
participants by using 2 or more maps with 10 participants around each map.
