The program was so valuable! The support in navigating D&I conversations was well- timed and prompted some very powerful conversations with the associate I participated with. The coaching framework strengthened my existing skills and showed me ways to ensure I am being inclusive.
The content I’m taking away from this session has already helped my confidence to engage in these types of conversations and be a more inclusive leader….thank you for providing me with additional skills to become a better change advocate for inclusive leadership!
One of the best training programs I have attended over my career. Breakout practice sessions very effective at breaking old habits and creating foundation to foster diverse and inclusive environment.
Inclusive leadership is a multi-faceted set of skills promoting workplace diversity and
belonging. Leaders who possess these capabilities foster a culture where all team
members feel a sense of being valuable contributors, empowered with the resources
and support they need to achieve their full potential.
At LeadvantEDGE, we impart the Skills necessary for inclusive leadership.
Possessing the communication skills to approach difficult conversations to “talk it
out effectively” can change a culture and make it more inclusive. Developing the
leadership skills to successfully engage in conversations that advocate for diversity,
address blind spots, challenge the status quo, and prioritize inclusion leads to
cultural transformation.
We facilitate the conversational competencies required to create robust and
inclusive cultures consciously. That requires skillful engagement in productively
negotiating differences, which makes new levels of connection, rapport, and
understanding possible.
In contrast to many programs that are just a few hours or a few days long, our
sessions occur weekly over time, allowing for the spaced repetition required for
skill building. Participants fortify their newly developed capabilities through
rigorous practice, real-time feedback, collaborative learning, and coaching.
Deliberate skills-based practice in small peer groups, facilitated by a trained coach,
creates meaningful behavioral change over time.
Our clients report that they gain access to a set of foundational leadership and
communication skills that transform their relationships. This dynamic creates an
environment where people feel valued, respected, and supported, building a more
profound sense of loyalty and belonging. We design solutions tailored to the specific
challenges faced by your organization and employees so you can experience success
in creating the diverse and inclusive culture you seek.
Through our proprietary learning process, leaders build the self-awareness and interpersonal effectiveness required for creating an inclusive environment, driving engagement, and enhancing performance.
Creating a work environment where everyone feels welcome and can succeed starts with leaders who include everyone. These leaders work to recognize and confront bias in themselves, address bias in others, look for new points of view, and demonstrate curiosity and empathy with their colleagues.
Targeted skill building efficiently and effectively addresses skill deficits that, if enhanced, increase desired performance, supporting better business outcomes.
To optimize the sales process, we build capabilities that improve relationships, build loyalty and identify unmet needs.
