  • New Book ‘Reimagining Fairness’ Unveils Bold Framework to Build Truly Equitable, Legally Sound Organizations

    [ad_1]

    Essential Reading for HR Leaders, DEI Professionals and Executives Navigating Inclusion Efforts in a Shifting Legal and Political Climate

    Introducing “Reimagining Fairness: An Equity, Cultural Diversity, and Inclusion Competency Approach,” the latest release from internationally recognized cognitive cultural psychologist and organizational change strategist Dr. Billy E. Vaughn. Arriving at a critical moment amid growing legal and political pressures on equity efforts, this timely book delivers a groundbreaking, practical framework for embedding fairness into organizational culture, leadership, and talent management. Dr. Vaughn’s approach equips organizations to advance equity in ways that are not only sustainable, but also resilient to legal and regulatory challenges.

    What Sets This Book Apart

    While most DEI books focus on increasing representation, offering standard diversity training or holding leaders accountable, Reimagining Fairness takes a bold direction few have taken. It introduces the Equity, Cultural Diversity, and Inclusion (ECDI) Competency Framework – a practical philosophy and strategic method that goes beyond implementing legally vulnerable best practices. This framework directly connects fairness to organizational objectives, bottom line, and long-term success, making equity an integral part of how organizations achieve and sustain their goals while managing risk.

    “This book is not about checking boxes. It’s about making fairness part of how organizations lead, operate, succeed.” – Dr. Billy Vaughn

    Press Release


    Jan 11, 2023

    The International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET) has awarded Diversity Training University International (DTUI.com) the prestigious Accredited Provider accreditation. Only approved IACET Accredited Providers organizations can offer IACET Continuing Education Units (CEUs). The accreditation period extends for five years and includes all programs DTUI provides and creates during that period.

    Senior managing partner Billy Vaughn, Ph.D., stated that “cultural diversity leadership work is too volatile and critical to rely on bootstrap learning or simply passing a test. DTUI created the first diversity certification courses in 1998 in response to the growing need for diversity leaders trained to do the work and get results. That requires an excellent training program that meets professional standards. IACET accreditation demonstrates our commitment to high standards in training diversity leadership competence. We thank our staff, advisory board, and graduates for their efforts and support throughout the accreditation process.”

    To achieve Accredited Provider accreditation, DTUI completed a rigorous application process and successfully demonstrated adherence to the ANSI/IACET 2018-1 Standard for Continuing Education and Training by addressing the design, development, administration, and evaluation of its programs. DTUI pledges its continued compliance with the Standard now that it is authorized to use the IACET name and Accredited Provider logo on promotional course material. In addition, DTUI is currently listed on the IACET website and recognized as offering the highest quality continuing education and training programs.

    DTUI currently offers diversity certification courses through our subsidiary Diversity Executive Leadership Academy. A partial list of our currently accredited courses includes:

    • Cultural Diversity Leadership Foundations
    • Training Design & Development 
    • Strategic Diversity & Inclusion Strategic Initiatives
