There’s a phrase in the equity, diversity, and inclusion space that states: Diversity is a fact. Inclusion is a practice. Equity is a goal. All of that is true, but it’s today’s leaders who must enable, scale, and sustain all these things.
To create a strong bench filled with leaders who prioritize equity, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace, talent leaders must invest in and work to build an inclusive mindset across their organizational ranks. To build an inclusive mindset requires a specialized skill set and tool set.
This webinar will help talent leaders identify how inclusive leaders think and perceive the world, what paradigm shifts need to happen internally to enable the consistent practice and prioritization of inclusion, and how inclusive leadership is evolving. It’s not a static concept. Talent leaders must keep their fingers on the pulse of changing definitions, strategies, and tactics to equip their leaders now and in the future.
This session will explore:
- What responsibilities do minorities — women and people of color who do not have the same access to leadership development resources — have when it comes to upgrading their leadership skills?
- How can talent leaders upskill inclusive leadership capabilities? What is needed strategically and programmatically?
- What is compassionate leadership? How does that relate to inclusive leadership, and how do we sustain and nurture it?
