Through our research, thought leadership and practice-based know-how, we help current and future leaders work toward a more diverse, inclusive, and fair future.

Inclusive leadership

Organizations must become more inclusive and diverse to thrive in the future: the business case is as a compelling as the moral imperative. How can executives foster inclusion to unlock the power of diversity, while recognizing and tackling inequity and discrimination? In the June issue of I by IMD, we explore how leaders can build organizations and design products and services that are truly inclusive.
