Inclusive Leadership and Teams
Inclusion is no longer a “nice-to-have”; it’s a strategic imperative. In this presentation, Ori shares stories
from his new best-selling book and beyond that bring to life the insightful and often amusing evidence
that he and his Radical Inclusion co-author, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen.(R) Martin
Dempsey, have nearly nothing in common—except a deep and unwavering belief that the hard problems
we face in our businesses, at the national level, and internationally can be solved with better leadership.
Drawing on examples from business, academia, government, and the military, Ori will show:
▪ How the speed and accessibility of information create digital echoes that make facts vulnerable
▪ How the fear of losing control is pushing us toward exclusion and why leaders should develop an
instinct for inclusion
▪ How to create networks of inclusion within the organization
▪ How to leverage inclusion to improve communication and gain better knowledge from all edges
of the organization
▪ How to create ongoing processes to ensure inclusion continues to be leveraged toward
organizational success

address today’s real leadership challenges.The Chaos Imperative: How Chance and Disruption Increase Innovation, Effectiveness and Success

Decentralized Networks

back. In this classic presentation, Ori leads the audience back in time to demonstrate how throughout
