The Great Leadership Transformation: Fortay.ai Launches Inclusive Leadership(TM) Development Tool to Boost DEI and Organizational Success
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – January 12, 2023) – Fortay, the Team Success platform has recently launched its Inclusive Leadership™ Development Tool designed to create a more inclusive workplace, advance DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) progress and increase organizational growth. The factors of high turnover, team performance impact, lower wellbeing, and survey data from exit, engagement and DEI surveys, provide an opportunity for new innovative approaches to transform leadership development and corporate culture.
“With all the heightened focus on DEIB in recent years, we all expected to see sustainable and lasting progress but the numbers tell an opposite story. More than ever, employees are leaving for more inclusive companies for greater wellbeing and mental health and how organizations show up for The Great Leadership Transformation is imperative,” explains Fortay CoFounder and CEO, Marlina Kinnersley. “For success, organizations need to prioritize the employee experience with a focus on inclusive leadership feedback, to enable the change and results employees and employers need.”

Inclusive leadership
Inclusive leadership is the daily practice of addressing biases, discrimination, and inequities, and cultivating a psychologically safe work environment for all employees to feel valued, respected, and supported for high performance and organizational growth.
Fortay’s Inclusive Leadership Approach
Fortay’s new Inclusive Leadership product is driven by the central idea that the strategic goal of growth requires inclusive leaders and teams.
The platform’s proprietary holistic approach is “people-first and science-backed” to achieve maximum business results and increase overall organizational performance, leading to greater success. Fortay’s Inclusive Leadership Assessment has a high degree of reliability and validity, as it was developed using a multi-phase, scientifically validated approach, meeting the standards of both science and practice.
“The future of work is inclusive. Progressive businesses that develop this critical capability of inclusive leadership are the ones who will succeed and grow,” continued Kinnersley. “When you prioritize inclusion and rely on employee feedback to measure inclusive behaviors from your management team, you’ll be able to drive lasting behavioral change at your organization.”
The Fortay Inclusive Leadership product is a multi-use assessment, performance, and development 360 multi-rater tool that helps leaders gauge their inclusiveness across three critical dimensions – Continuous Growth, Foster Belonging, and Empowerment. The central aim is to measure leader behaviors that enhance employees’ perceptions of deep integration into the social environment in the workplace while providing necessary support through a lens of identity-related consideration. Inclusive leaders practice effective leadership for improved engagement, problem-solving, collaboration, employee retention, and innovation.
Fortay’s Inclusive Leadership Product Capabilities
The Inclusive Leadership multi-rater assessment provides personalized insights and detailed recommendations and resources for future improvement and development, benefiting leaders and managers, their teams and organizations.
Leaders learn what inclusive behaviors their team members have observed, which ones they have not and help identify any leadership perception gaps. Organizations benefit by understanding who needs support where, who is most likely to be an effective leader, and the gaps in their leadership development program. Most importantly, investing in proactively developing inclusive leaders demonstrates a deep commitment to build an inclusive workplace culture that will help attract, develop and retain top industry talent.
Organizations looking to learn more about the Inclusive Leadership product and how Fortay can help develop effective, inclusive leaders and managers while improving the employee experience to retain top talents can reach out to the Fortay team.

Dogecoin Unveils Strategic Blockchain Movement
Expanding Beyond a Meme Coin
Dogecoin, often viewed as a lighthearted cryptocurrency, is making serious strides toward blockchain utility with a new strategic initiative aimed at expanding its use case beyond simple transactions. The Dogecoin Foundation has announced plans to integrate layer-2 solutions, smart contracts, and interoperability features, potentially positioning DOGE as a serious competitor in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.
This move signals a shift in the perception of Dogecoin, which has long relied on community-driven momentum. With the new strategy, DOGE could become an integral part of the growing Web3 ecosystem.

The U.S. Army is leveraging blockchain, big data, and generative AI to track billions of dollars in aid sent to Ukraine. This marks a significant step in blockchain’s adoption by governments and defense agencies to enhance transparency and prevent fraud.
By using blockchain for immutable record-keeping, military officials aim to improve logistics tracking, reduce inefficiencies, and ensure secure auditing of aid distribution. This could set a precedent for future government adoption of blockchain-based verification systems.

Web3 Companies Struggle with Domain Name Challenges
Decentralization vs. Traditional Domain Ownership
As blockchain companies push forward with Web3 adoption, many are encountering significant hurdles in securing relevant domain names.

Industry experts are calling for greater collaboration between blockchain projects and domain registrars to ensure seamless Web3 adoption while maintaining online accessibility for users.
