Inclusive Leadership and Mentoring Bootcamp for Project / Program Management and PMO Leaders

Recent research shows that inclusive leadership and mentoring creates a better ecosystem and culture leading to successful financial business outcomes in various settings. In this interactive session for project, program and PMO leaders, we will review the characteristics of inclusive leadership based on current leadership research. Participants will apply strategies to develop each of the characteristics of inclusive leadership. Participants will reflect on their current leadership practices to see where they might adapt them to become more inclusive. An important component of inclusive leadership is building a community of inclusion, which can be done through an inclusive mentoring program. We will review how participants can build an inclusive mentoring program at their organization.

Participants will also get the opportunity to learn about inclusive mentoring and able to connect with trainers one-on-one post session for 30 min each.
Session includes interactive session for the participants.
