What Inclusive Leadership Really Requires with Colette Phillips

Inclusive Leadership

Inclusive leadership can be a sensitive subject.

On one hand we can appreciate the concept intellectually, but emotionally, when someone says we’re not being inclusive it feels like a personal attack because we’re often unaware of how our behavior impacts what others see and hear AND more importantly, how our own culture, experiences, and biases shape what we do and say.

How do we get out of this Catch-22 and bridge these cultural gaps that rob us of credibility and influence? Today’s guest has some proven tips and strategies for you.

What You’ll Discover About Inclusive Leadership:

* What inclusive leadership really means

* The seven traits of inclusive leadership

* The inclusive leadership trait that can’t be taught and you need to hire for

* The trait that is the most challenging for leaders to master

* And much more.
