In what ways can companies ensure that their leadership teams are not only diverse in terms of representation, but also actively inclusive and supportive of all identities and perspectives within the organization?

Companies can ensure that their leadership teams are both diverse and inclusive by implementing diversity and inclusion training for all employees, including leadership. They can also establish clear diversity goals and hold leaders accountable for meeting them. Creating mentorship and sponsorship programs for underrepresented employees can help foster a more inclusive culture. Additionally, leaders should actively seek out and listen to diverse perspectives, ensuring that all voices are heard and valued within the organization.
