People often tell me that combining the words “inclusive” and “leadership” together into one phrase is a confusing combination. This at least partly because the traditional definition of “leadership” is often very “exclusive’. Here is a clarifying diagram:

AND experience is the best teacher. Here are two ways to experience yourself as an Inclusive Leader. We all have a vital role to play in building welcoming and inclusive communities based on respect for the magnificent diversity in all living beings.

• Are you a new or experienced Inclusive Leader who lives locally or happens to be visiting BC, Canada during the weekend of Sept 28 to 30, 2018? You, your colleagues, family, and people you are mentoring are invited to our annual Inclusive Leadership Gathering on Vancouver Island, BC. Come for 1, 2, or all 3 days. https://inclusiveleadershipco-op.org/coming-events/annual-ilc-gathering/ 
• Inclusive Leaders from throughout our beautiful Global Village of Planet Earth are invited to click here to “Discover Your Inclusive Leadership Potential” Online. Our next guided group expedition beginning October 1 will credit you with 40 hours of Participatory Online education (4 hours per week at your own pace).
