The mission of LEAD Culture is to assist leaders in their quest toward becoming effective communicators through self-discovery and cultural competence. Within our approach, we infuse Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) with Effective Communication so that our clients can speak with confidence and courage.
LEAD Culture offers customized workshops, trainings, and individual coaching for a wide range of topics for building skills in DEI and Effective Communication. Our services include (but are not limited to):
We offer highly customized workshops, trainings, and individual coaching sessions for a wide range of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) topics and Effective Communication skills. Sessions are led by our subject-matter expert and brought to you to encourage inclusive and equitable spaces throughout your organization.
Our years of experience facilitating and developing interactive workshops allows us to transition seamlessly to an online environment. Similarly to our in-person sessions, our virtual programs are designed to maximize individual and organizational development of new language and skills toward effective communication and inclusive leadership.
On-demand digital content makes it easier to participate in ways that fit your busy schedule with the convenience of easily accessible course materials from your home or office. If you’re in need of a refresher on Communication tips or DEI “do’s and don’ts”, these recorded sessions and digital handouts promote continued learning toward equitable and inclusive practices.
In addition to LEAD Culture assisting you and your organization enhance your strategic goals and initiatives toward a more inclusive and equitable environment, your investment will also include:
