The end state in dei is a myth

If your idea of inclusive leadership is built on a thought that you can do it right only when you have it all figured out – know it’s an impossible attempt.

You can lead inclusively from right where you are on your DEI journey, also by giving yourself permission to be vulnerable about this path, by sharing with your team about your growing pains and lessons you’re taking from mistakes.

Showing transparency and authenticity about your DEI journey 𝘐𝘚 inclusive leadership, it builds a foundation for trust of your team that they can show up as who they are, where they are.

There is nothing embarrassing or unworthy about being on the journey or anything that should stay hidden until you reach a flawless state and become a DEI champion.

How do you support leaders for them to feel it's ok to show up authentically?
