Yesterday I was part of a panel on building and leading inclusive teams. One of the questions we were asked was how to build an environment where people at all levels feel comfortable sharing feedback with leaders and each other.
Creating and sustaining a feedback-rich culture is an overlooked aspect of inclusive cultures (and discussions on how to build an inclusive culture). And the effort that it requires can be intense (in a few different ways).
But it's a fundamental and worthwhile investment for leaders who want to advance diversity and inclusion in their business. Our panel had 4 key pieces of advice for leaders & managers of people who want to develop a feedback-rich culture on their teams and in their orgs:
