In this episode of ‘Belonging is a Verb,’ I have a great conversation with Dr. Sebrina Lindsay-Law, exploring the power of inclusive leadership and continuous learning.
We dive into personal backgrounds and discuss the personal and professional impact of leadership that fosters diversity, equity, and a genuine sense of belonging.
We talk about topics such as the importance of self-reflection and feedback in leadership, the role of 360 evaluations, and the necessity of a continuous improvement mindset.
Sebrina shares insights from her extensive background in education and consulting, particularly on diversity and inclusion, explaining the need for authentic reflection, systemic change for inclusivity, and the value of understanding and improving oneself.
We also touch on the significance of creating conditions for everyone to feel included without the notion of making accommodations feel like an adjustment or a burden, suggesting a shift in language and attitude towards inclusivity.
