The Staff College is committed to the development and embedding of equity, equality, diversity and inclusion principles into practice, by facilitating a greater understanding around inclusive leadership and cultural competence.
Our programmes are co-created and built around a shared sense of moral purpose, social value and compelling supporting narrative drawing from lived and living experience, underpinned by robust governance and accountability.
Our BALI programme is one of our longest standing programmes, established in 2012 to explore the obstacles and barriers global majority leaders face within the public sector. It provides a psychologically safe space to acknowledge challenges and explores ways to support growth, knowledge, and strategies to overcome challenges.
We recognise that Global Majority Leaders and practitioners are not a homogenous group and the practice of Cultural Competence is integral to the programme’s approach, where all cultures are recognised and the additionality of individual cultural paradigms are welcomed.
BALI is delivered as a Global Majority safe space for participants which gives all participants the confidence to be themselves and have candid discussions without feeling a need to moderate their views for the comfort of others.
*Global Majority – refers to people who are Black, Asian, Arab, Brown, dual-heritage, indigenous to the global south. We recognise people will identify with a plethora of terms, we at TSC use Global Majority due to its all-inclusive and powerful statement of who we are collectively. We therefore see the term Global Majority as an antidote to potentially negative and disempowering terminology normally associated with minoritised groups.
