achieve dynamic diverse organizations
Leading with Equity™ is a new women’s professional development program offered by Inforum in partnership with Grand Valley State University’s Division of Inclusion and Equity. The program is an acknowledgement that discourse about leadership is often missing important perspectives on power, privilege and oppression – which are necessary to understand in order to achieve an organizational culture where all people can thrive and be their full, authentic
selves.
