Equality and diversity is not just

about providing fairness for all, it’s

also an important part of winning

more work, creating stronger teams

and improving the bottom line.

With so many of our managers

coming from trade backgrounds in

a homogeneous industry there are

often misunderstandings about not

only diversity in construction but

how to manage teams as a whole.

Our one day course looks at how to

improve not just diversity but

teams in general, after all we are all

different. We also consider the

social, legal and wider economic

arguments for diversity, firmly

installing in delegates that this is as

much about improving business

and securing their long term future,

as looking after those in the

minority.

Using industry case studies and

exploring long held construction

myths about diversity we seek to

ensure that delegate walk away

understanding their role in securing

and promoting diverse talent in

industry by understanding the

barriers and having the confidence

and tools to overcome them.

Managing Diversity

A one day course for line managers

in construction organizations.
