Using Your Head, Heart and Hands to Become a More Empathetic Leader
Being an empathetic leader starts with the simple truth that leadership is about people.
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.
Build a road map to become a more inclusive workplace
We understand how important it is to provide people with a way to confidently and safely speak out and raise DEI issues. Blanchard’s Courageous Inclusion™ programme can help.
Courageous Inclusion™ teaches a mindset that promotes diversity and inclusion, then provides a proven process to help people become more knowledgeable and active proponents of inclusion in the workplace.
Participants will be taught how to diagnose themselves on the developmental continuum and which actions to take to progress to higher inclusion levels.
This road map approach makes Courageous Inclusion™ uniquely powerful for increasing inclusivity in your culture and creating a workplace where everyone feels they belong.
Based on a Proven Development Path for Workplace Inclusivity
We partnered with diversity and inclusion expert Jennifer Brown to create Courageous Inclusion™ based on the proven development continuum in her book, How to Be an Inclusive Leader.
Drawing on years of work with many leading organisations, Jennifer Brown shows what leaders at any level can do to spark real change. She guides readers through the Inclusive Leader Continuum, a set of four developmental stages:
- Unaware
- Aware
- Active
- Advocate
It’s time to move DEI from a business priority to a workplace reality
Research has revealed that
93% of leaders agreed that diversity and inclusion is a top priority, but only 34% of leaders believed it's a strength in their workplace.(1)
