Abstract

This chapter examines how to enhance employee well-being in the Bahamas through inclusive leadership practices. The grounded theories supporting this chapter include social identity theory (SIT) and optimal distinctiveness theory (ODT), which explained how inclusive leadership focuses on fostering a sense of belonging for employees' individuality. This study investigated the impact of inclusive leadership—defined by empathy, respect, and active participation with all employees—on fostering a more productive, cohesive, and positive workplace culture. Descriptive research design and quantitative methods were used to address the variables related to inclusive leadership. The study's sample size was 365 public and private sector leaders and workers within the Bahamas. Inclusive leadership enhances workplace well-being primarily through psychological safety rather than communication, is strongly influenced by employee engagement, and requires structural and cultural adjustments to realize its benefits fully.
