Inclusive Leadership Skills

Maria Grazia Zedda

Culture and Inclusion Problem Solver

An interactive workshop in inclusive leadership in your team (3-5hrs).

At a time of confusion about AI and its use in the workplace, now it's more important than ever to master human leadership skills. By attending the workshop you'll be able to:

  • Identify barriers diverse populations experience at work and in wider society and why it’s important to address these at work, not only from a legal standpoint but as proven business strategy

  • Identify what can get in the way of our workplace values, how to model them, and how to respond rather than react

  • Explore effective ways to identify and address incorrect assumptions in difficult conversations or performance evaluations.

  • Identify strategies to drive change through leadership rather than authority, including handling conflicting needs in teams.

  • Identify strategies to ensure your wellbeing and that of

    your team as key requisite for inclusive leadership.
