As Fahrenheit's Human Capital Management Practice Lead, I address the HR strategies and pitfalls of creating a work environment that generates innovation, productivity, and inclusiveness—talking about the real, hard choices that business leaders must make, and how to communicate those decisions to boards, executive teams, and employees.With a passion for creating more culturally inclusive and equitable workplaces, my career began in international relations at a large multinational corporation in Beijing where I worked in operations and procurement. A published author and organizational development expert, I was previously the CEO of an award-winning HR and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion consulting firm where I spent several years executing large corporate DEI initiatives and offering fractional HR services. Currently, I serve on an international board dedicated to children’s literacy, Chair Virginia’s Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Commission, and Vice Chair the board at Data Friendly Spaces.To purchase my latest book on HR, check out: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1949929787
