What does this event cover

Local government teams are more diverse than ever, as are the communities they serve. Inclusive leadership means recognising and valuing those differences, and adapting how we lead so that every person can contribute their best.

In this webinar we will explore what that looks like in everyday practice, how your leadership affects the people around you, and how to lead across different generations, cultures and personalities.

It is designed for leaders at every level, from emerging and team leaders to senior managers and executives, and will also benefit kaimahi who want to understand what good leadership looks like and how they can contribute to it.

You will come away from this webinar able to:

  • Understand what inclusive leadership is and what it ‘looks like’ in practice, so that you can evaluate your own leadership practice.
  • Better recognise the impact of your leadership on others.
  • Show a greater awareness of individual differences, and how to adapt your leadership to bring out the best in diverse individuals.
  • Provide more inclusive leadership to a broader range of people.
