Inclusive Leadership
In this experiential learning module on Inclusive Leadership, the learner plays the part of a new supervisor for a diverse team of six individuals at a successful online retailer. The team has had three separate supervisors in the past 18 months who have all had different leadership styles, and this instability has contributed to poor team dynamics. As a result, the group has not become a cohesive team, nor are they performing to their potential.
As the new team leader, it is up to the learner to recognize and improve this team’s situation. To succeed, they will need to effectively display the traits and behaviours of inclusive leadership. Through individual and facilitated group communication, the learner has the opportunity to build a culture of openness on their team.
The Ametros module on Inclusive Leadership was developed in collaboration with:

The learner will experience the challenges of starting a new role in a team management position. They will practice the behaviours of inclusive leadership across several communication contexts and respond to an existing culture that is not inclusive to everyone on the team.
This learning module will take learners 1 to 1.5 hours to complete.
