Transforming Your Workplace with Inclusive Leadership

At Canadian Equality Consulting, we believe in the importance of fostering an inclusive culture. We do so by transforming our leadership styles to be Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)-focused and generating a sense of belonging for all. In this month’s webinar, we will hear from our internal DEI practitioners about exploring different competencies and expectations of an inclusive leader. We will also discuss what it’s like to build an equity-centered organization. Join us to learn more about nurturing an inclusive workplace as a crucial part of your DEI journey.
