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
