Creating a workplace where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued
Blanchard believes everyone deserves a workplace environment where they truly can be themselves. But achieving true diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) isn’t easy. Leaders need a plan and the right skills to carry it out.
Based on the proven developmental continuum in Jennifer Brown's book, How to Be an Inclusive Leader, Courageous Inclusion™ cultivates a mindset that promotes diversity and inclusion. The course teaches participants how to become more knowledgeable and active advocates of inclusion in their workplace. |
