Master the art of balancing direction and participation to drive performance, engagement, and team success.
This course provides a comprehensive framework for inclusive leadership, focusing on the practical application of skills to manage team dynamics and drive business results. It covers the psychological and systemic foundations of inclusion, including the SCARF model and systemic team rules, while offering a suite of 25 micro-skills for daily leadership interactions. The curriculum addresses common pitfalls such as over-inclusion and the confusion between harmony and inclusion, providing tools to maintain clarity and direction. Designed for both leaders and HR professionals, the material emphasizes self-awareness, the recognition of individual and cultural differences, and the use of the leadership funnel to align team efforts with organizational goals.

Clinical psychologist and leadership coach with 35+ years' experience. Founder of Mind Growing. Helping leaders balance clear direction with real participation.
I'm Marc Vanschoenwinkel, a university-trained clinical psychologist and founder of Mind Growing, an international leadership and organisational development practice based in Spain. For more than 35 years I've worked with leaders and teams across Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America — in retail, food, finance, healthcare, manufacturing and corporate settings. Clients include IKEA, Danone, Philips, BASF, Alpla, Millicom and CFAO, and I've supported Air Products' leadership development for close to 30 years. Over those years I kept seeing the same thing: a lot of talent stays hidden because the environment isn't inviting enough for it to come forward. At the same time, inclusion done badly slows teams down. That tension is what this course is about. Inclusive Co-Created Leadership gives you a practical way to know when to involve people and when to decide, built on psychology, systemic thinking and 25 concrete micro-skills you can use in your next meeting. I'm also the author of Mind Growing: Leadership — Build Thriving Companies Through Personal Growth.
Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
