When the Clerk’s Call to Action was adopted, many leaders became responsible for implementing a series of actions to advance anti-racism, equity and inclusion in the federal public service. Many leaders feel that they do not have the awareness, tools and support to successfully implement the Call to Action or even know where to begin.
In this interactive session, senior leaders will examine five practical and tangible strategies to meaningfully implement the Clerk’s Call to Action. Using our signature model of organizational change, participants will explore how to use an intersectional, collaborative, accountable and structural approach to advance the Clerk’s Call to Action across the department. As well as strategies to embed anti-racism, equity and inclusion throughout the employee lifecycle, including recruitment, performance and talent management, and how to measure and report on progress to increase representation and retention of Indigenous, Black and other racialized employees.
At the end of the session, participants should have a better understanding of the techniques to leverage your department’s existing anti-racism strategies in order to recruit, advance and retain Indigenous, Black and other racialized employees, strategies to embed anti-racism, equity and inclusion within your team’s day-to-day operations, strategies to track progress and measure the impact of your actions, strategies to use the Clerk’s Call to Action to advance other leadership priorities including public service accessibility, official bilingualism, public service pride and the future of work.
