Equity & Inclusion

Today’s leader is versatile, adaptive, able to navigate uncertainty and course correct to set new direction, vulnerable enough to be authentic about what they think and feel as they move their organizations forward, and courageous enough to do the heavy lifting even when it takes them way out of their comfort zones. Change requires intentional focus and deliberate action from leaders who leverage their positions to walk the talk and embed best practices in their organizations.    ​
The St. Paul Area Chamber offers a suite of programs designed to develop equity leadership at all organizational levels, from frontline workers to C-suite leaders: the Equity Leadership Series, the Equity Summit, and the DEI Collaborative.​

Equity Leadership Series 2.0

Addressing inequity in any given organization requires acceptance and commitment by leadership. At the St. Paul Area Chamber, we recognize the importance of promoting diversity of thought, culture, personal identity, lived experience and perspective with leaders to achieve a vibrant and economically successful future in the region.

The Equity Leadership Series was born out of that commitment and through this six-part leadership development series works to drive inclusive change for true equity within participants’ organizations. It is about transformational leadership.
​
This year, based on our participants’ feedback, we are redesigning the series to be more immersive and experiential while creating community among the participants. It will continue to be a six-part series spread throughout the year with organizations encouraged to send a team of at least three participants. What’s truly exciting is that we will take participants into places where they will be exposed to difference – see it, hear it, taste it and feel it.​

2023’s six-part series will be in person and will take participants to a variety of places in the Twin Cities where they will experience different cultures and perspectives followed by facilitated discussion. Depending on the experience, times will vary. 
​
 
​It is up to all of us, no matter where you are within an organization’s hierarchy or in your community to drive the change for all of us to be our authentic selves and feel welcomed and supported in our workplaces and in the community.

Be a part of making our region a leader in the nation as a champion of equity! Check back for ticket pricing and 2023 session content. 

Equity Leadership Summit 

​​The future of our economy depends on how we address equity and inclusion today. As leaders, we must be prepared to drive change within our organizations and throughout our region. The St. Paul Area Chamber’s Equity Summit is a community of leaders. A place of learning. An opportunity for celebration. And, above all, a call to action. This annual event focuses on the work the business community is doing to drive equity change on a large scale and within organizations throughout the region. Join us for Equity Summit in November 2023.  Please check back for updates! ​
