Abstract

Reimagining diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) became a high priority and central in WGU's strategic plan including successes, lessons learned, and opportunities to make an even greater impact for faculty, staff, students, and communities. In this chapter, per the authors, WGU's wins, lessons learned, and opportunities to make an even greater impact for faculty, staff, students, and stakeholders are explored. Higher education institutions and businesses alike realized an inclusive workplace where employees feel they can be their authentic selves was necessary to attract the best talent and foster greater innovation. Although WGU was more uniquely positioned to host DEI initiatives, strategies, and trainings virtually, there were still many lessons to be learned.
