To empower leaders to translate the principles of inclusive leadership into action within the context of the federal public service. By the end of this session, leaders will have an increased understanding of what inclusive leadership is and the levers for leading change and identify their opportunities to implement inclusive practices within their day-to-day work.

Working in the public service is like being in the 1999 movie The Matrix. Rules and programming govern how people interact within the system and amongst themselves. Being Black in the Matrix means it is necessary to see through the code in order to understand how to achieve career advancement, address systemic racism and ultimately empower oneself to evolve and make change within the machine.
