BIBA West Midlands & Birmingham Insurance Institute
Seeing Beyond the Label – Wine Tasting & Diversity

BIBA West Midlands, Birmingham Insurance Institute and Beazley are pleased to invite you to register for this wonderful event. Weather permitting we will be on the roof top terrace enjoying a welcome drink before the CPD and wine lasting session with Jeff.

There are many links between the world of wine and a good strategy for diversity and inclusion in the workplace and society as a whole. Like labelling in society, people tend to make judgements about wines based on labels but in fact wine tasting requires us to notice characteristics and to reflect on our experience and this is exactly the same strategy that helps to encourage diversity and inclusion.  By tasting 5 different wines, you will learn how to move beyond labels and relate this to diversity and inclusion both in the workplace and society as a whole.

Learning objectives:
By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

• identify the key elements of a successful diversity and inclusion strategy.
• recognise the link between diversity and inclusion and the world of wine by moving beyond labels.
• implement a personal and corporate strategy that takes account of diversity and inclusion.
