Inclusive Leadership

Many organisations now have diversity and inclusion policies as standard. But too often, the focus is on increasing the diversity of the workforce without considering how to bring in and make use of the skills and talents that diversity offers. This topic is aimed at leaders who want to learn about inclusive behaviours. We will explore the difference inclusion makes to people, what happens when we feel included and how leaders can avoid bias and prejudice in their decision making. We’ll look at the business argument for inclusion and examine the inclusion paradox. Throughout , leaders will pick up tips and skills that will enable them to appreciate and value difference, and make it work positively for them and their organisations.

Inclusion is much more than just a buzzword – it’s a business strategy that can result in better business performance, increased innovation, an enhanced employer brand, and a culture that maximizes employee engagement and retention. As workplace diversity is accelerating, the focus on creating a truly inclusive working environment has never been more important.

As a leader, it’s easier to reach your goals if you have a team whose members support each other and can get the maximum value out of their different strengths, skills, ideas, and talents. The more people feel included and involved in decision-making and problem-solving, the more engaged and productive they will be.

The aim of inclusive leadership is to create, perform and innovate as a team; while valuing and balancing everybody’s individual needs. This requires leaders to be self-aware, to welcome contributions, to demonstrate and live a shared vision of inclusion, and to create strong relationships. It also requires the courage to take steps to break down the barriers that people may face.
