Leaders from these organizations are helping to shape this critical product
Inclusive Leadership™ is a multi-use assessment, performance, and development tool to help leaders identify and measure their inclusive leadership ability for better team performance and a culture of high belonging.
Leaders who effectively lead a diverse team inclusively by actively addressing biases...
Leaders who effectively lead a diverse team inclusively by actively addressing biases, discrimination, and inequities - and cultivating a psychologically safe work environment for all employees to feel valued, respected, and able to deliver their peak performance.
Our leadership approach directly impacts employee experiences of inclusion and belonging. Engagement, problem-solving, collaboration, employee retention, and innovation are affected by inclusivity at work.
With business leaders investing and prioritizing DEIB more intentionally, inclusive leadership is more relevant now than ever. You can have stellar diversity metrics, but if you don't have an inclusive work environment where everyone can bring their best selves, your DEIB efforts won't succeed.
To achieve and scale team success, leading inclusively is paramount!
"In 2021, we launched the first comprehensive RCMP Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy, which sets a foundation to increase our capacity, serve our employees and the communities we serve with dignity and greater respect for diversity. The EDI Strategy takes a firm stance against racism and discrimination; focuses on leadership awareness and accountability and drives toward a culture of inclusion. Fortay's Inclusive Leadership assessment helped us to gain important insight into the inclusion competence profile of our leadership team. We appreciate the opportunity to participate in this important research. There is no doubt that the final product will benefit many. Even in its early stage, the assessment and the support team brought value as we continue on our transformation journey."

"Our commitment to EDI&A is deep-rooted in our values at Randstad. We know that to keep that commitment we must always strive to continuously learn, to challenge our perspectives, policies, and biases, and to ensure that our leaders can thrive in an environment that embraces mindfulness and self-reflection. With Fortay's Inclusive Leadership assessment we can intentionally shift focus with current leaders and create awareness and action from day 1 with individuals just beginning their formal leadership journey. This assessment allows us to unlock the power that rests in our diversity by ensuring our leadership understands how to create sustainable inclusive environments. We are proud to contribute to the research with the assessment and look forward to the impact ahead from embedding what we learned through the process."

"We were very excited to engage our leaders in the Inclusive Leadership Self-Assessment design with Fortay. As an exercise, this assessment provided a valuable way for us to take stock of our behaviors for supporting continuous growth, fostering belonging, and providing empowerment. The results also provided great insights that will help us continue to drive our DEI strategic pillars by shaping actions for developing and supporting enhanced inclusive leadership behaviors with this group. The Fortay team did the heavy lifting and provided the messaging for our use – we just set up the distro list and hit send. Awesome experience!"

Great question, right! The research indicates we are not great at judging how inclusive we are. Deloitte's study found that 65% of leaders either overestimated or underestimated their inclusive behaviors. More importantly, research has demonstrated that there is a strong correlation between inclusiveness and leadership effectiveness.
