Catherine T Kwantes (University of Windsor), Wendi L Adair (University of Waterloo), and Leanne Gosse (Conestoga College) have created an online resource to help Canadian organizations build stronger connections with Indigenous employees. The “Building Trust with Indigenous Employees: the Indigenous Workways Toolkit” includes six self-guided training modules that offer insights into the worldviews and workplace experiences of Indigenous peoples. It also offers three manuals with information about how to support cultural safety for Indigenous employees, develop mentorship networks, and guide organizational outreach. It was developed over six years, with all corresponding research conducted with guidance from Indigenous Elders, an advisory council, and a team of Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars.
