Through our research, we know that inclusive leaders are more authentic, have more engaged employees and have higher-performing teams. We also know that inclusive leaders focus on relationships and create environments where colleagues are comfortable being their authentic selves and feel a sense of belonging within the organization. Leaders who are more inclusive have teams who are more innovative and more productive. Simply put, inclusive leaders are the most effective leaders. However, leaders rarely get specific feedback on how to be more inclusive. Our assessments are grounded in 30 years of proprietary research on the behaviors of the most impactful leaders.
