MicroInequities: The Power of Small™

Insight Education’s flagship product, MicroInequities: The Power of Small™, gets to the DNA of culture change and is the new paradigm for diversity. This program effects major changes in the cultural landscape of organizational diversity by addressing the small, yet powerful, biases communicated in the workplace.

Part 2—Sustaining the Impact

Participants in the MicroInequities: The Power of Small™ seminar leave the experience with a new understanding of the influence subtle messages have on the performance of others. The material covered, however, is broad and much of the impact remains in the awareness and Level 1 stage of application.

MicroInequities: Sustaining the Impact – Part 2 takes participants from awareness to active application of the program’s skills. In this session, participants learn an in-depth application of the tools and how to apply them for long-term use.

Some examples include: teaching managers to actively talk about MicroInequities and incorporate it into their team and on-on-one meetings, using it in setting goals, adding it to large scale business agendas, and rewarding people who do it.

The session incorporates analysis of case study scenarios. In addition, participants bring real-ife situations and are guided through hands-on practice for meaningful practical progress. The result is that participants master the essential three pillars of micro-messages: awareness, skill, and application.

Reverse Mentoring

Reverse Mentoring reverses the roles of the traditional mentoring model—here Senior Leaders become the Protégés and Middle Managers, the Mentors. In this unique model, each participant becomes one half of a dynamic partnership that allows him or her to learn about and respond to the perceptions and challenges that a diverse workforce faces, both personally and professionally.

Reverse mentoring is a program designed to strengthen the underlying pillars that sustain growth in diversity within a company, by cultivating meaningful connections and relationships between people at significantly different levels of an organization.
