***Our crisis of trust calls on allies to champion inclusion & belonging*** \- by Neil Metzler
There is a deep, persistent crisis of trust in the workplace. Trust in organizations, leaders, and management has never been lower.
This crisis underscores the challenges and opportunities for inclusion and belonging at work. Allies in particular have a critical role to play. Allies who seize the opportunity will succeed and emerge as top performing leaders. They will prove themselves capable of managing through change, driving innovation and navigating uncertainty.
Leaders who fail to invest in I&B to nurture and grow trust at work will become expendable and sidelined in role.

Take this opportunity to amplify your voice, showcase your expertise, and step confidently into your role as a data leader. We look forward to seeing you on 15 May!
