Path To Becoming An Inclusive Leader

Diversity has evolved from a mere compliance exercise with a focus on meeting numbers on various measurable attributes (gender, race, age, disability) to the reality that our organizations are increasingly diverse, multicultural and global.

Today, we refer to inclusive leadership as an integrated set of skills that are required to channel the power and potential of a diverse workforce for the benefit of the organization, teams, workgroups, individual employees, customers, suppliers and the communities we serve.

This session is a preview of the AMA seminar, Leading in a Diverse and Inclusive Culture, explains how this course gives you deeper insights into yourself, your team, and the benefits of inclusion at all levels in your organization.

Join Carrie Spell-Hansson who will teach you the characteristics and skills vital to an inclusive leader, including:

• The difference between diversity and inclusion, and its presence in and influence on our day-to-day interactions and decisions
• How to recognize the manner in which culture impacts our perceptions, beliefs, behaviors and responses
• The concepts of unconscious bias, micro inequities and micro advantages
• The characteristics of successful culturally competent leaders

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.

The Skills Gap Is Growing, The Workforce Is Aging,
And Labor Shortages Are Looming!

Last year, nearly 70% of HR professionals reported difficulty recruiting for full-time positions.

While the war on talent is nothing new, now more than ever, organizations need to think outside the box when it comes to recruiting great people.

Attracting and retaining older workers as part of your recruiting mix can yield dividends in the areas of engagement, workforce stability, and cognitive diversity.

Whether your project is agile or not, it is critical that you practice good requirement and/or user story management.

Requirements and user stories do not just exist by themselves. Instead, they are linked to other artifacts such as test cases and test sets, scenarios and/or acceptance criteria, code and design components, tasks, risks, and actions.

Requirements and user stories also change during the course of a project and over the lifecycle of an application.

Some requirements or user stories originate from user requests, some evolve from bug reports or issues, and some are even enhancements to existing functionalities. A good requirement/user story management tool must support all these aspects of features.

This webinar will demonstrate how the requirement / user story component of Rommana ALM supports all these aspects and more.

The intent is to help you understand true requirement and user story management so that you can make an informed decision regarding tool selection and tool adoption.

If you are already using a tool to manage your requirements and/or user stories, this webinar should help you customize your tool to support all these aspects.
