Invitation from the Instructors

The business case for diversity and inclusion has been in existence for decades. Time and time again, studies show that organizations that understand how to build and leverage diverse teams experience higher growth, better profitability, better decision-making and more. Yet on an everyday basis, we still see and experience styles of leadership that are less than inclusive, that still default to command and control as opposed to connect and include.

What would it mean for you to be a more inclusive leader? Why should you be investing time and intention into becoming one? And what are some critical components and concepts to consider as you do so?

If becoming a more inclusive leader is critical to your growth and success this year, we invite you to join us for Becoming an Inclusive Leader.
