    June 7, 2022

    What’s inclusion got to do with it? At Plink leadership, we believe leaders build their competence by demonstrating the traits of inclusive leaders. Most leaders don’t intend to exclude others. Yet, leaders can fail to get the best out of their teams due to personal bias and the inability to adapt and listen deeper. In this session, you will gain insight into what it means to be an inclusive leader, including taking on the difference as your own and being courageous in conversation and your actions.
