Equity Leadership Series
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.

Format:
2025’s six-part series will be in person, typically lasting 2-3 hours. Sessions will take participants to a variety of places or experiences in the Twin Cities where they will gain familiarity with, learn about, and reflect upon different cultures and perspectives in our community, followed by a 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!
