As a leader, how willing are you to be different than the norm, by intentionally supporting those individuals who’ve historically been under-supported and overlooked in your organization? Although it might be a struggle to change your habits and build a true diverse workplace, you must be willing to have hard conversations to develop a deep culture of belonging.
Alicia Newton, the founder of Learning Path LLC, puts diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in true context and shares why mental and emotional self-care is an important part of any DEIB initiatives. She also explains how to exercise vulnerability as a leader in order to allow different voices at the table to cultivate inclusive workforces and workplaces.
