As workplaces become more diverse, the mix of cultural backgrounds and social identities leads to varied experiences of privilege and discrimination. Traditional leadership models often reduce an individual’s identity to a single aspect, overlooking the intersecting identities that shape each employee’s unique sense of belonging or exclusion.
This program offers a framework for understanding how different aspects of identity—such as gender, race, disability, neurodiversity, and age—intersect and influence our professional lives. Intersectional leadership goes beyond a one-size-fits-all approach, acknowledging and appreciating the complexity of each individual in the workplace. When leaders understand this complexity, they can create more inclusive workplaces where employees feel truly seen and valued for their unique experiences.
By adopting an intersectional approach, leaders can effectively promote workplace equity and leverage social differences as professional strengths. In so doing, they can drive greater innovation, collaboration, and belonging within their organizations. We guide leaders in developing a nuanced intersectional awareness that fosters mutual support, continuous learning, and collective action.
