The future of business is equitable and to successfully innovate and maintain a competitive advantage, organizations must embrace inclusion wholeheartedly. The Equity Fluent Leadership (EFL) Academy is an equity and inclusion training designed for business leaders who aspire to further equity and inclusion in their organizations and drive impactful change. Led by the Center for Equity, Gender & Leadership (EGAL) at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business, participants will learn what it means to be an Equity Fluent Leader™, why diversity and inclusion matter, and research-driven methods to expanding equity within your company.
What are Equity Fluent Leaders? Equity Fluent Leaders intentionally utilize their impact to drive change with the intention of crafting a more inclusive and equitable world.
