Abstract:
By fostering an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued, inclusive leaders unlock the full potential of their teams, driving significant improvements in both performance and motivation. An environment where everyone's viewpoints are appreciated and accepted is fostered by inclusive leadership, and this improves problem-solving, creativity, and decision-making. This encourages candid communication, enthusiastic involvement, and distinctive abilities among team members. This study employed two theories namely authentic leadership theory and goal-setting theory. In summary, inclusive leadership is considered a potent instrument that improves team motivation and performance through team empowerment, collaboration, and psychological safety. Base on the summary, I recommended that establishing open lines of communication, being transparent, and working as a team are necessary to cultivate trust and collaboration within the team. Leaders that use these strategies can maximise their own potential and enhance team effectiveness.
