Through storytelling\, research\, and personal experiences\, she offers a common-sense yet compelling and actionable approach to inclusion. She argues that people shouldn’t feel guilty or defensive when having inclusion-related conversations; the brain is to blame\, not people. This discussion is for all leaders; leaders of self\, people\, initiatives\, and organizations. \n  \nLearner Outcomes: \n\nArticulate the case for integrity-based leadership as it relates to mitigating common challenges women face in the workplace.\nDescribe specific leadership tactics that can be used to overcome these issues.\nGain access to resources (infographics and pre-defined social posts) that can be used to continue the conversation with your network.\n\n\n \nMelissa Majors is a crowd-pleasing speaker who masters brain-friendly talks that engage her audiences and spark not just inspiration but action as well. \nMelissa Majors is the author of The 7 Simple Habits of Inclusive Leaders\, creator of Melissa Majors Consulting\, in’klooded®\, and Community Keynotes®.
