Overview
Harness the benefits of diversity for organisational success.
The workplace is a microcosm of society. And today our society is more diverse, but also more partisan, more polarised than ever before. As a leader, it falls to you to harness all the benefits of diverse thinking, ideology, perspective and ways of doing in order to solve problems, drive innovation and unlock new value. At the same time, it is your responsibility to create, lead and model a collaborative organisational culture; one that not only accommodates difference, but proactively welcomes and values it.
Creating Inclusive Organisations empowers you with the evidence-backed insights, frameworks and tools to transform your leadership. You discover how to be a more inclusive leader: exploring breakthrough scientific approaches and leadership techniques that can assuage friction, unlock collective and collaborative thinking, enable wellbeing, engagement and new levels of productivity—and truly harness the power of diversity within your people, your teams and your organisation.
Impact
An exciting and transformational learning journey for you. Impactful and far-reaching benefits for your people, your teams and your organisation.

How you learn
Creating Inclusive Organisations dynamically integrates science and theory with morning lectures followed by class debate and discussion, case studies, group exercises, simulations and explorative role plays. You will be challenged to become experimental in your approach as a leader, both during and after the programme: trying out new approaches that build on your learning and devising your own techniques and interventions to review and evaluate in class and in the workplace. The programme is led by LSE faculty together with guest speakers and practitioners and brings together participants from a rich diversity of roles, organisations, sectors and industries to share insights, perspectives and outlook as you learn together.
