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.

In this webinar Efrem Mallach aims to improve participants’ understanding of system-level implementation issues.

Information system conversion has been with us since users of punched-card tabulating systems first moved to vacuum-tube computers. However, it has generally been seen as an afterthought: once the “interesting” development stages of analysis, design and so on are done, it will just happen. Efrem Mallach views the process holistically, from both the technical and human viewpoints. This reflects the fact that information systems have both technical and human components. Ignoring one side or the other can lead to problems, which can be avoided if all aspects are considered together.

Presenter: Dr. Mallach (LinkedIn profile) has taught in the information systems field since 1984. In addition, he has had a long and varied career in the information technology industry – before this time, during a break from teaching in 1998-2003, and on a part-time basis while teaching. This exposure to real-world practice, which continues today, gives him a perspective on information systems that is impossible to obtain through academic pursuits alone.
