I work with high-impact and mission-based organizations across sectors to create and implement innovative approaches for building culture at scale. My recurring clients are smaller companies or tech startups with less than 1,000 employees.

In short, no. Often organizations emphasize the importance of DEI training and make significant investments to train employees, however there isn't much emphasis on capacity building following DEI training which limits their ability to drive and sustain inclusive behavioral change. There are many out-of-the-box training programs and content that already exist, therefore I focus more on DEI strategy acceleration by helping you to dig deep, find concrete solutions, build a step by step plan, and identify the tools that will keep you motivated for implementation.
If requested, I can recommend some platforms and vendors for your DEI training and facilitation needs.
