Description: We all deserve to feel safe, respected and valued at work. The Workforce Race Equality Standard data demonstrates that the levels of bullying and harassment within the NHS are rising year on year, and this is resulting in low staff retention and a poor workplace culture. Recognising these issues is an important part of our training as healthcare professionals but also as leaders. Our personal experiences of diversity training have been that it is not specific to the dynamics of NHS workplaces. We recognise that challenging authority is difficult, but can be especially so when that authority can have very real impacts on training and opportunities. This course will offer a chance to reflect on your workplace culture. You will have the opportunity to share scenarios that you have witnessed, discuss these in small groups, and offer a structure for how to challenge injustice. There will then be the opportunity to act out different ways of approaching these scenarios with our talented actor in a safe and supportive environment if you wish. There is also the option to watch these scenarios be acted out, which will prompt further thinking about how you might do this in your workplace.
