Multiculturalism: why should we care about race?

IE shapes leaders with global vision, an entrepreneurial mindset and a humanistic approach to drive innovation and change in organizations

IE University - MEA

Uncertainty, fear and emotional stress related to coronavirus have recently combined with potentially explosive racial and cultural tensions to become something that we cannot put neatly into a box to ‘deal with’ later. 

 

Leaders need to face up to the sensitive and deep-rooted emotive issues that have surfaced and that can no longer be swept under the carpet.

 

Being brave is risky. So too is standing up for what’s right. The actions leaders take now will mark them and their organizations. The path to being genuinely and consciously committed to equity, inclusion and embracing difference calls for a re-imagined form of leadership.

 

We will be discussing the skills and capacities needed for leading and working effectively in a multicultural business and society.
