FISD/SIIA Virtual Workshop: Strategic Shifts Essential for Leadership – March 8

AGENDA

Organizations are challenged to develop leaders from diverse backgrounds who can think strategically and solve systemic problems. Women and People of Color (POC) are often treated as “doers” rather than the strategy gurus, due to external and sometimes internal biases. What does it mean to be a strategist, and how can women & POC leaders showcase their strategic capabilities? Moreover, how can their managers support this effort? This workshop offers a new model that helps to shape strategic leaders using five perspective shifts that move POC and women into a more strategic mindset, understand their value, and increase their impact, as well as provide allyship opportunities to non-diverse managers.

Participants will achieve the following learning objectives:

• Identify the 5 perspective shifts required to think strategically
• Apply the 5 shifts to your current role and/or how to support others applying their shifts to their roles
• Plan how you can implement the shifts to increase your visibility, impact and influence and/or how you can support others increasing their visibility
