Defensive behaviour would come from that many diversity trainings foster insecurity, anxiety, and self-contempt.

What I think avoids that are these principles from Chloe Valdary's Theory of Enchantment: https://theoryofenchantment.com/

- Treat people like human beings, not political abstractions.

- Criticize to uplift and empower, never to tear down, never to destroy.

- Root everything you do in love and compassion.

As someone who has pretty much discounted diversity training initiatives as a class, this actually intrigues me on account of the first point. It runs pretty contrary to the Critical Race Theory (CRT) based training materials that I've seen.
