Inclusive leadership in the workplace is just as much about being a team player as it is about leading from the front. That’s why we thought we’d share with you some great team-building intel for leaders to ensure the biggest inclusivity impact at your organization.
Amri Johnson has put together a truly informative piece called “Inclusive Leadership is a Team Sport." Amri is an inclusion strategist, epidemiologist, and entrepreneur whose mission for over two decades is to help organizations thrive via inclusive structures and practices. As the Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Inclusion Wins, his new book, “Reconstructing Inclusion: Making Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Accessible, Actionable, and Sustainable” is a must-read for all companies that demand inclusive leadership in the workplace.
His article takes a deep dive into how inclusive leadership within a team can help drive the growth of others whilst also anticipating the future needs of employees and their ability to adapt to those needs.
Inclusive Leadership Drives Growth
Amri's main takeaway:
“Modern-day organizations need to elevate their DEI training and capabilities to adapt to perpetual ambiguity and complexity. Constant individual and team reflection is required to do so. While developing an inclusion system where inclusion and equity are normative, leaders (of all types and at all organizational levels) must constantly expand their capacity to create the conditions for everyone in the business to thrive. To achieve inclusivity, people must learn leadership capabilities at a team level.”
