REGISTRATION AND CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST 8–9 AM

SEMINAR 9 AM–5 PM 

Many leaders do not think about their legacy until later in their careers. Have you? What have you accomplished, how have you done it, and who have you influenced? How does your leadership approach exert a positive impact in your workplace and for others to carry on? In this unique, engaging, and interactive pre-conference workshop, you will consider these questions, as you delve into the critical competencies and skills needed to be a legacy inclusive global leader in 2013. You will assess and consider how to:

• Distinguish among a wide range of complex yet simple leadership skills to help you toward becoming a more emotionally intelligent and inclusive leader 
• Garner deeper levels of loyalty and support from team members and colleagues by demonstrating a genuine belief in the value of others, creating a sense of belonging for those you don’t typically invite in your circles, and provide openings for all to meaningfully contribute 
• Ensure you are leaving the “leadership legacy™” you intend while navigating the sometimes uncomfortable complexities of workforce diversity 
• Challenge yourself to expand deeply held notions of who “fits in” by taking bold steps to explore personal prejudices and orchestrating more “human” connections with others 
• Take a guided tour of potential risks leaders face when they fail to be inclusive in decision-making processes 
• Explore potential strategies to avoid missteps and risks associated with diversity and inclusion related - issues from “legal’s perspective” 
• Get “legal’s perspective” on what competencies may help reduce your - and your company’s - potential litigation exposure in a work environment that values diversity and inclusion
  Identify measurements to determine where you are in your journey toward demonstrating success
