Description

Inclusive leadership is an emerging leadership approach that has recently gained popularity, with an influx of papers being produced in the past decade. Randel et al (2018) have defined practising inclusive leadership as; supporting group members, ensuring justice and equity, sharing decision-making, encouraging diverse contributions and Helping group members fully contribute.

During this session, we will explore how those working in organisational psychology conceptualise inclusive leadership as defined above, and can utilise their current knowledge, experience and expertise to explore their insights into embedding inclusive leadership in organisations.

As this workshop is based on a dialogic approach, we aim to explore the meaning participants associate with inclusive leadership, inviting an active peer-to-peer learning experience and creating a space for conversations that expand our thinking about inclusive leadership and our work.

The session will begin with a short input defining inclusive leadership, then invite participants into discussion circles to explore the definition and their experiences of inclusive leadership, if any lastly, we will take each area as defined by Randel et al (2018) and explore potential supports and barriers, as identified by participants based on their professional and academic experience to date. To close we will finish with a reflective piece, inviting participants to reflect on the process and the topic at hand. Encouraging active engagement and reflective practice.

Through this experiential process participants will be active in learning about inclusive leadership, applying their expertise to the questions posed, witnessing the insights of their peers, experiencing alternative views and solutions to posed questions, and will be invited to reflect on the process of taking part as well as the topic at hand.
