Session 4: Inclusive Leadership in STEM
Leaders in STEM have the opportunity and duty to foster environments where diverse voices are heard, valued, and included in decision-making processes, innovation, and research. They recognize the value of different perspectives and experiences in driving innovation and problem-solving.
The lack of diversity in STEM is amplified for positions of power. Groups that are the most underrepresented and marginalized in STEM (Black, Latino/a/X, Indigenous and people of color) are the least represented in leadership positions. In this session, we will learn about why leadership in STEM can be less diverse and how we can work together to ameliorate this issue. We will also explore strategies for being an inclusive leader that can be implemented at multiple stages of a person’s career.
