Cultural Humility in Leadership: How Inclusive Leaders Build Stronger Teams

About this episode

This episode discusses the importance of cultural humility in leadership and its impact on building inclusive teams.

As workplaces become more diverse, leaders must move beyond cultural competence and embrace cultural humility—a mindset that fosters inclusion, trust, and stronger teams. In this episode of Talent Talks, host Rob Adams speaks with Dr. Sarah Prince, PhD, Curriculum Developer for Training and Development at TI Verbatim Consulting (TIVC), about why cultural humility is a critical leadership skill and how it can transform workplace culture. Dr. Prince explains the key differences between cultural competence and cultural humility, how self-reflection and adaptability help leaders foster inclusive teams, and why the shift to a majority-minority U.S. workforce by 2045 makes this leadership approach more essential than ever. You'll also learn practical strategies for: Building psychological safety to enhance trust and collaboration. Improving active listening to engage authentically with diverse perspectives. Embedding cultural humility into leadership to drive better business outcomes. If you're a leader looking to create an inclusive, psychologically safe, and high-performing workplace, this episode is for you.
