Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion
For organizations to remain competitive, leaders need to create environments that foster equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI).

Building Collaborative Relationships
Successful leadership begins with an ability to create and foster collaborative relationships with employees, co-workers, and other leaders in the organization. While many people may be promoted to leadership roles based on their superior abilities as direct contributors, relational competencies must be cultivated to be strong and effective leaders. You will develop collaborative relations by practicing collaboration strategies: building rapport; creating inter-team collaboration; and fostering a wider network of relationships with colleagues, stakeholders, and other organizations. This session will include relevant theory combined with interactive group exercises focused on collaboration and discussions designed to reinforce learnings from the practical exercises. The skills you develop in this course will assist you in creating and optimizing collaborative relationships.
Upon successful completion of the competency assessments, you will earn 1 NAIT Micro-credential and receive 1 Digital Badge you can share on social media and with your network.
