Workforce Development

CulturalWorks recognises the multi-layered value of cultural diversity in the workplace which includes:

​

• Building trust, respect, creativity, innovation and fostering staff’s sense of belonging.

• Positively contributing to creating and sustaining a psychologically safe workplace.

• Contributing to improving collaboration and productivity.

• Influencing better services and outcomes for children and families from diverse backgrounds.

​

CulturalWork’s self-assessment tool, underpinned by the S.E.L.F tool, provides an organisation with a point-in-time measure to understand its workforce cultural diversity, and in turn consider strategies that may enhance recruitment, policy and practices, onboarding and ongoing workforce development opportunities that maximise both its cultural representation and its culturally responsive capabilities.
