Inclusive Leadership Development Or Women’s Leadership Development?
A question that is often posed to the team at Diversity Partners is “Should we invest in women’s leadership programs or broader inclusive leadership programs? Today Dr Katie Spearritt sets the record straight.
Speed Read
- Inclusive leadership training builds the capability of leaders to recognise and challenge unconscious bias and adopt consciously inclusive behaviours and actions
- Women’s leadership training programs vary greatly but often focus on developing women’s confidence in the workplace
- When resources are limited, the programs that are most valuable are those that support leaders to value inclusion, diversity and recognise the blind-spots that are holding diversity progress back
A decade of consulting work with Diversity Partners has shown that both inclusive leadership development programs and women’s leadership development programs are important, but we’re also pragmatic enough to know that priorities have to be set when resources are tight. We take a look at the value of each program and insights on what works best to achieve more inclusive and diverse work cultures.
