In this episode, Stephen George talks to Ryan Lester, fundraiser, advocate and campaigner on diversity and inclusion and AFP Toronto Committee member on building cultures though diversity and inclusion. Ryan explores the power of bringing your whole self to an organisation, what diversity and inclusion actually means, what gets in the way and how to embrace it
The Culture Club started as a panel session at IFC in October 2018 and was followed up by a panel session at AFP Toronto 2018. The sessions looked at how organisations build and support amazing cultures, encouraging the personalities of individuals and the organisations to emerge and that allows people to connect and align with core values and messages. This series on the Good Leaders Podcast continues that exploration, looking at the barriers and opportunities in a great culture, how power can make or break a culture, the impacts on fundraising, how brand can help or hinder, on aspiration, the behaviours needed and how to build a place where the culture becomes the catalyst for great work and change.
