The Inclusive Leadership Baseline - Leadership that works for everyone.

True inclusion means not having to ask.

The Inclusive Leadership Baseline (ILB) is a practical system that helps leaders build high-performing, psychologically safe teams—without requiring anyone to disclose a disability, trauma, or health condition.

Problem

Most leadership frameworks fail because they assume everyone functions the same.

Traditional inclusion efforts rely on disclosure, vague values, or training that doesn’t change how work actually happens. This leaves many employees masking, burning out, or quietly quitting—and leaders struggling to fix problems they can’t see.

What is the Inclusive Leadership Baseline?

The Inclusive Leadership Baseline (ILB) is a plug-and-play framework that equips organizations to meet the 7 Universal Workplace Needs shared by neurodivergent, disabled, chronically ill, and trauma-affected employees—without asking anyone to self-identify.

You’ll walk away with:

  • A baseline assessment of your current leadership environment
  • A system for inclusive decision-making and delegation
  • Tools to prevent burnout, disengagement, and attrition
  • Language to advocate for inclusive change—without performative DEI speak

The 7 Universal Workplace Needs (I-7)

Predictability

Predictable routines, formats, and communication patterns allow employees (especially those with executive dysfunction or anxiety) to spend their energy on the work, not on decoding what’s coming next 

Clarity

Clarity — in goals, roles, behavior norms, and feedback — eliminates the guesswork and builds both confidence and psychological safety. 

Flexibility

Flexibility in how, when, and where work happens allows people to honor their energy cycles, manage pain or mental health symptoms, and perform at their best. 

Autonomy

Too much micromanagement stifles. Too little structure overwhelms. Inclusive leadership balances the two — offering freedom within a framework. This supports those with attention, processing, or trauma-related needs while still driving accountability and trust. 

Psychological Safety

Psychological safety means people can ask questions, challenge ideas, admit mistakes, or say, “I’m not okay,” without fearing judgment or retribution. 

Accountability

Kind, direct accountability — focused on behavior, not identity — allows teams to improve without shame. For those with rejection sensitivity or trauma, this makes all the difference. 

Consistency

Inclusive leadership applies expectations evenly while still honoring individual needs. It’s not about treating everyone the same — it’s about being fair, predictable, and anchored in respect.

Why It Works

This isn’t a motivational speech or DEI training. It’s a leadership operations tool. The ILB works because it maps universal human needs to actionable design choices—without requiring personal disclosure, identity labels, or vulnerable storytelling.

It’s inclusion at the system level.
