DISCOVERING DIVERSITY PROFILE
Overview
The Discovering Diversity Profile introduces a process that helps draw out our knowledge, feelings and understanding of the variety of human qualities basic to the people with whom we work. Based on your responses to the profile, you will receive personalised feedback that moves through four levels: Knowledge, Understanding, Acceptance and Behaviour. Each area is important in shaping our attitudes toward diversity.
