Learn why it’s so important for organisations of every size to have a more inclusive approach to corporate storytelling.

In today’s podcast, I’m delighted to introduce you to Jackie Handy, one of the UK’s most prominent speakers and trainers on diversity and inclusion, about the role stories can play in creating a culture that welcomes, leverages and embraces the power and potential of greater inclusion in the workplace (which, in turn, creates conditions that encourage more creativity and shared meaning for all in any organisation)

How to embrace inclusive stories to create a more welcoming and positive corporate culture

• Why leaders need to hear and start conversations without fear of making mistakes
• ‘The Power of I’ Facebook forum – which offers a safe space to ask questions about diversity and inclusion with respect and honesty (contact Jackie if you wish to be invited to this group)
• A story that shows the challenges of overcoming ignorance in the workplace
• Feedback after a TedX talk about why recognising differences matters to everyone
• A realisation that most people have experienced exclusion in life and how we can work together to achieve a better, more inclusive way forward
