Inclusion Geeks Academy

Creating an inclusive workplace isn’t work that only large corporations can do. Small businesses can also drive meaningful change by building and promoting a culture where all employees and customers feel valued. But with limited resources and competing priorities, where do you start?

This free one-hour webinar is designed specifically for small business owners and leaders who want realistic, actionable strategies to build inclusion into your daily operations. Through interactive discussions, real-world scenarios, and anonymous engagement, you’ll learn some clear steps you can take to create a more inclusive and equitable business.

• The unique challenges and advantages that small businesses have compared to large organizations
• Key foundations of an inclusive culture, including psychological safety and equitable practices
• Real-world strategies for addressing bias, improving hiring practices, and creating an inclusive team environment
• Practical steps you can take immediately—regardless of budget or team size

By the end of this session, you will have concrete takeaways and a roadmap for implementing small but impactful changes in your business.
