inclusive behaviors L.A.B.

Become the leader that’s needed – to engage your employees and create a culture of belonging. The Inclusity L.A.B. will equip and empower you to cultivate the inclusive behaviors, empathy, and authenticity that will drive a positive, productive culture. This 3-day workshop is a supportive environment where leaders will feel safe to ask questions and express leadership challenges related to culture. Through in-depth discussions, interactive exercises, and deep introspection, you will expand your understanding of yourself and others.

More than just a workshop

The Inclusity L.A.B. is more than a workshop! Because it’s an intensive training experience and an investment of  time, we want participants to gain as much as possible from it.

That’s why we start with a 1:1 Pre-L.A.B. Conversation, which is a confidential, virtual meeting with an Inclusity facilitator. This is an opportunity for the participants to establish comfort with Inclusity, learn more about the workshop, and ask any questions they might have about it.

To reinforce and extend the learning and development from the L.A.B., we recommend following up with individual coaching and virtual check-in sessions with the L.A.B. group.
