Using Inclusive Language in Leadership

Author:

Abstract

Leaders should exemplify integrity, inclusivity, and honor the diverse world around us. Ethical leaders should integrate Inclusive language into our daily conversations and behaviors. This session will uncover assumptions we have about groups of people, why this is problematic, and how society has developed negative contexts around particular words. Moreover, the session will offer how leaders can incorporate more inclusivity into dialogue and leadership. As leaders, we have a responsibility to engage and provide safe spaces for all people to learn, process, and reflect on their experiences.
