Continuing our conversation on International Youth Day, let's discuss the evolving role of young athletes in shaping inclusive sports environments. Young athletes are not only playing for medals but also leading the way for promoting inclusivity in sports. a.) Inclusive Leadership: Today’s young athletes are promoting diversity and equity in their teams. How can we support and amplify their voices? b.) Creating Safe Spaces: Building a culture where every athlete feels seen and valued is important. What are the innovative ways to build such spaces? c.) Breaking Barriers: Athletes from diverse backgrounds are challenging stereotypes and driving change. How can we encourage and celebrate these efforts? Our DEI training for Athletes program, helps young leaders navigate and champion these critical conversations.

Leaders, HR professionals, and anyone invested in female empowerment: The link between sports participation and leadership success for women is undeniable. Our new blog post explores how sports shape female leaders and why investing in girls' athletics matters. #femaleladership #womeninsport #genderequality Let's start a discussion! How can we encourage more girls to stay in the game? https://lnkd.in/gFMk6-UC

What if instead of trying to protect women from failure we gave them opportunities to expand and grow? *While mentorship is well-intentioned, it's not the most effective way to accelerate a woman's path to leadership. Sponsorship – that is, providing exposure and opportunities– is much more effective if the objective is career advancement. . . . #WomenInConstruction #WomenLeaders #Mentorship #Sponsorship #LeadershipDevelopment #ConstructionIndustry

Three years ago, we launched Your Time with a bold vision: to empower girls with the confidence to become leaders in sport. Today, we're proud of the incredible impact and lasting legacy of the programme. Despite recent breakthroughs in women's sports, a disparity persists in girls' participation in competitive sport and leadership roles. Your Time is changing this narrative. Through innovative e-learning, peer support, and hands-on experience, we're breaking down barriers and nurturing essential leadership skills. The numbers speak volumes: ✅ 14,500+ girls engaged in competitive sporting events ✅ 65,000+ hours of learning and competitive activities facilitated But the true legacy of Your Time lies in the stories beyond these figures. Participants have gone on to host multiple events, establish girls' sports clubs, and volunteer in local sporting communities. They've become role models, inspiring a ripple effect of participation and leadership among their peers. Your Time is more than a programme; it's a movement. We're redefining what's possible for girls in sport, one leader at a time. Ready to be part of it?

Leadership comes in more than one form… Megan Rapinoe and Ali Krieger, while distinct in their leadership styles, share a common thread of leaving an indelible legacy in women's soccer. Rapinoe's leadership is characterized by bold advocacy, fearlessness, and a knack for rising to the occasion in high-pressure moments. She's been a vocal force off the field, championing equality and justice. On the other hand, Ali Krieger's leadership is grounded in defensive excellence, resilience through adversity, and fostering a positive team culture. Her journey speaks to overcoming challenges, displaying consistency, and serving as a steady presence on the pitch. Together, their divergent leadership styles converge to create a powerful narrative of strength, unity, and empowerment within the U.S. Women's National Team. Their combined legacy extends beyond victories and accolades; it's a testament to the transformative impact leaders can have both in sport and society. Megan Rapinoe and Ali Krieger have not just played a game; they've contributed to a broader conversation about equality, representation, and the enduring spirit of teamwork. Their legacies inspire the next generation to dream big, work hard, and leave an imprint that transcends the boundaries of the soccer field. Happy Retirement to both #leadership #sports #nwsl

This was a brilliant webinar organised by Steph H.! Well worth a watch for any existing or future leaders. This webinar was super important for a number of reasons... But perhaps most importantly because you can't be what you cant see. Providing fantastic queer role models for gen-Z looking to get into the workplace can (and will) help them to thrive and smash the misconception that young queers can't lead in business. #Lgbt #leadership

Audre Lorde and other women of color feminists and womanists have been extremely influential in our work here at Indy Equity. They influence how we think of possibilities of equity in organizations and help us see clear gaps in current diversity management research. In our fellowship, the Indy Collective Leadership Circle, this month we are reading bell hooks to learn how to incorporate an ethic of love into our work. If you haven’t read Audre Lorde, bell hooks, Patricia Hill Collins, Chela Sandoval, or Gloria Anzaldúa, and let me go ahead and add adrienne maree brown to the list, do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of something. #masteryourmindset #indyequitycollaborative
