Resource: Why leaders are struggling to ‘walk the talk’ when it comes to racism in the workplace
Racism is still prevalent in many workplaces, as found by the 2020 Workplace Diversity & Inclusion Survey. While discrimination and prejudice may tend to be more subtle at work, it has a significant impact, harming both the mental health and career potential of racialized employees.
Over the years, I’ve heard the same sentiment echoed by colleagues and coaching clients when it comes to racism in the workplace:
No one speaks up or acts on their behalf, even in situations when inappropriate behaviour and actions are obvious to all.
My downloadable resource “Inclusive Leadership: How To Step Up For Your Diverse Team” sheds light on some of the reasons why leaders struggle to ‘walk the talk’ when it comes to addressing racial discrimination and prejudice in the workplace. This insightful new resource also provides examples of tangible supports that can help you to begin your journey to becoming a more inclusive leader.
