Engaged staff members who feel not only seen but valued for their diverse perspectives and experiences are more likely to innovate, take on challenges, stay on the job, and work as a team. These essential qualities make all the difference when it comes to increasing your impact and building the inclusive movement we collectively seek to create. In this webinar, you’ll explore core practices that support engagement and inclusion, and leave with a running start on next steps to support your team, whether you’re operating virtually or in-person.
