Diversity is a huge asset to businesses and radiology departments alike. However, if there is a lack of inclusion then there is no benefit from diversity due to those diverse employees’ burnout. Inclusion is vital to maintain diversity and mitigate burnout.
This article teaches you about inclusion and how to assess inclusion at your institution (with suggested survey questions). You’ll also learn how to assess for burnout in the target populations.

This article discusses the causes of depression and burnout in minority and nonminority medical students. The article found that most causes of depression and burnout are similar in minority and nonminority students; however, there are some specific stresses that affect minority students more than nonminority students. Attention to these unique stressors in minority students can help mitigate depression and burnout in this population.

Exercise:
The Implicit Association Test (IAT) measures attitudes and beliefs that people may be unwilling or unable to report. The IAT may be especially interesting if it demonstrates an unknown implicit attitude. Studies have shown that after respondents take the IAT, they are more open to diversity and inclusion because they see that bias exists, even in themselves.
