Decide Diversity is a training and consulting firm that specializes in increasing the presence and effectiveness of women and other underrepresented groups in leadership positions by focusing on intersectionality.Intersectionality occurs when a person identifies with 2 or more minority, oppressed, and underrepresented groups. We enhance the way organizations attract, hire, and develop talent by educating leaders serving organizations, and advocating for those whose voices are often muted.Decide Diversity exists to fill the gaps traditional diversity and inclusion programs unintentionally create. Most organizations focus on increasing the representation of individuals from the seven protected classes, yet very few people identify with just one underrepresented group! People are multidimensional and these dimensions can be uncovered and utilized through curiosity and exploration. Through our many products and services, we guide leaders towards an improved diversity and inclusion program.We create and deliver powerful presentations and workshops that demonstrate the principles of intersectionality in the world and in business. The personalized presentations are informative, inclusive, and provide action steps for leaders to take to make measurable improvements in their organization.As leaders in the field of diversity and inclusion, we serve those who are sincere about improvement. We work side by side with business leaders to strategize and execute detailed plans to make a significant difference.There are hidden figures in every industry and organization. Their voices are muted and their lights dimmed due to the way they look, sound, or their background. We fight for their right to exist. We fight for their right to lead. We fight for their right to be themselves. We fight for their right to be successful.
