Inclusive Leadership Journeys

Regrettably, becoming an inclusive leader does not happen overnight. Instead, it’s an ongoing process that is unique to each individual.

Symmetra makes this process simple for busy leaders by providing engaging, practical inclusive leadership journeys with a range of activities that promote the embedding of new inclusive habits and behaviours.

Our programs are grounded in development of key leadership competencies that help leaders shift their mindsets, recognise the lived experience of others, and implement inclusion throughout their organisation.

Your Journey Starts Here

Key Features of Inclusive Leadership Journeys

Our diagnostics provide granular and comprehensive insights into a leader’s inclusion strengths and weaknesses, thereby offering clear developmental goals for continued growth.

We offer a wide range of solutions that address key areas of inclusion including empathy and curiosity, unconscious bias, working flexibly, psychological safety, and leveraging diversity of thought.

We provide simple tools to help leaders work with their teams to reflect on inclusion and practice new behaviours. Symmetra’s team of experts work with leaders to create actionable plans and outcome-focused strategies to sustain inclusion long term.

To ensure continued personal and team DEI success, Symmetra offers individual coaching and action sessions to support leaders on their change journey and keep them accountable.

Inclusive Leadership Index (ILI) Assessment

The Inclusive Leadership Index (ILI) Assessment is a sophisticated 360-degree diagnostic designed for senior leaders, which measures observable behaviours to provide a clear picture of inclusion strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots.

By measuring the level of inclusivity displayed by leaders, organisations will be better able to address bias, exclusion, and unequal or unfair treatment that some employees may be experiencing. The ILI also provides an objective and measurable KPI for inclusion.

The ILI assessment positions leaders to embark on an individualised learning journey that will provide them with the knowledge and competencies they will need to embed an inclusive culture in their own team and across the organisation.

Benefits of Inclusive Leadership

Symmetra’s unique DEI tools have helped develop countless leaders, from the front line to the C-suite, to become drivers of inclusivity in their teams and organisations. These are the benefits they have experienced:

A more diverse workplace

Inclusive leaders counteract biases to hire talent who come from a wide range of ethnicities, cultures, ages, genders, and other dimensions, as well of diverse thinking styles, because they recognise and can leverage the value they bring.

Increased levels of innovation and performance

When leaders create an inclusive environment people can be their authentic selves and voice their opinions freely. This drives improved problem-solving, creative thinking, and information sharing, which drives new levels of performance.

Improved collaboration & work relationships

By encouraging mutual respect, empathy, and open communication, inclusive leadership creates high performing and cohesive teams that are resilient and adaptive.

Psychological safety and a sense of belonging

By inspiring a sense of being valued for one’s unique contribution, safety to speak up, and a place where everyone can succeed, inclusive leaders create more engaged and loyal teams.
 

Why Our Programs Deliver Results

Today’s leaders have a long list of competing priorities and even well intentioned leaders will not be able to build their inclusion skills if it feels like an additional and exceptional burden. To ensure our programs deliver positive results, Symmetra’s team of DEI experts personalise inclusive training to be suited to the needs and context of your leaders, and most importantly, directly linked to your core business strategy.

Not only do we provide the essential knowledge to become inclusive, but we also provide training to utilise inclusion to drive performance, creativity, and profitability – thus driving broader organisational goals.

Symmetra’s inclusion programs also provide measures to ensure your learning journey remains on track and your organisation’s progress continues over time. These measures provide clear insight into your DEI development and also a tool to hold leaders accountable for making improvements.
