Many business leaders recognise the importance of creating inclusive working environments where everyone feels psychologically safe to perform at their best. However, there is still work to do to make this a reality.

The Institute of Government & Public Policy’s one-day online CPD-accredited Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging for Leaders Workshop is designed for aspiring and experienced leaders who have a foundational understanding of equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) and are ready to implement strategic action plans within their workplace.

By embedding EDI principles into the core business strategy, organisations can experience enhanced financial performance, increased innovation, improved collaboration, and greater retention of top talent. When employees are empowered to bring their whole selves to work, it means feeling empowered and comfortable to bring all parts of your identity to work, energy that might otherwise be spent on concealing differences or managing anxieties can instead be redirected towards driving optimal business outcomes.

While EDI has become increasingly prominent on corporate agendas, a strategic approach to EDI is most likely to deliver the desired results in the long run. This advanced workshop is not just about theory, it's about practical application. It will deepen your understanding of these critical concepts and enhance your ability to lead inclusively. You will gain actionable insights, tools, and strategies that can be immediately applied to foster an inclusive culture within your organisation. Through a blend of interactive plenary sessions, group discussions, and breakout activities, you will have the opportunity to reflect, share, and collaborate with peers in an intimate learning environment.
