Suggested Strategy
Not sure where to start? Here’s our recommendation. Try one thing at time!
Watch my TEDx Talk and facilitate a discussion on it using our guide.
Learn more about the Inclusive Leadership Development Model and then complete the Inclusive Leadership Reflection Tool with a Strengths-based Growth Continuum. Discuss what you learned with others.
We recommend starting meetings with ground rules, group norms, shared agreements, guidelines, or as we call it a session pledge, to help facilitate a more equitable and inclusive environment.
Stewardship cultivates an enriching atmosphere, the opposite of gatekeeping behaviors. Everyone can practice stewardship and facilitate belonging for those around them. Learn about stewardship and gatekeeping, and practice using the prompts as a mindset and choice framework.
Explore how cognitive biases (flawed patterns of responses to judgement and decision problems) affect how we work.
Nudging is the process of influencing behavior through small changes in information or adaptations to an environment. We recommend the following our Unbiasing Nudges to unbias how we operate.
Inclusive Leadership
Inclusive leadership is imperative for creating cultures, teams, and organizations that drive equitable outcomes for historically marginalized and minoritized people. The inclusive leadership development model is a four-part, iterative, reflective, and reflexive framework for developing into an inclusive leader.
