I help innovative companies wanting to attract the best talent & be great places to work. Looking at culture, performance and results. Our process begins with strategic consulting, using an assessment process (part high-tech, part high touch) to assess what's working and what's not, in terms of current DEI efforts. Then, an intervention strategy is designed to raise the level of diversity intelligence collectively & individually across the company. When managers have the skills to...👉 develop a vision for their team👉 articulate their team’s part in the overall company strategy👉 manage time & priorities👉 give & receive feedback👉 leverage diverse perspectives for maximum innovation👉 and build trust within & across teams...they thrive & so do their teams.What differentiates me? I believe in the philosophy that being an inclusive leader & an effective leader are the same. My approach is unique, in that, I combine fundamental management tools while applying a diversity & inclusion lens, to ensure managers get the habits & behaviors of inclusion into their DNA.Specialized sessions with the executive level team to help them see & execute in the areas that only they are positioned to change/manage/measure/hold people accountable. BENEFITS:👉 We get results. 👉 We are a breath of fresh air - clients feel happy working with us. 👉 We breathe life & energy into every culture we touch. Companies that hire me demonstrate they REALLY care about DEI as opposed to "checking a box" with one-and-done diversity programs.HUMiN is the innovation you need to measure inclusion, improve inclusion culture, & get better results, such as ability to attract the best talent/win talent war, have higher retention, tap into people’s discretionary effort, innovate & outperform your competition. Let’s build DEI into the DNA of your company culture, and inspire, activate & energize everyone in the process!

When I became a mother, I realized that one of the first things to take a back seat was my own learning & development - the juggle was real. I was wearing a lot of hats - CEO, mother, wife, community member, friend, etc. How was I ALSO going to make time for my own growth & development? After seeing an ad for an online summit, I signed up. I gave up my Netflix binge in lieu of learning & within days I had a refreshed sense of energy, purpose & a few new strategies to use with clients. It was EXACTLY why I’d attended conferences in the pastI then set a great expectation for myself: to have a powerful & positive impact on the world by helping women be more confident, competent, valued, & respected in the world of business, community & family. The irony: I worked primarily with men.I saw first-hand the misperceptions & unconscious bias that held women back & held leaders back from promoting them. As I learned more about the link between women in leadership & improved business performance, I knew I needed to be part of the solution.Women like me (ambitious, high-achieving, professional women & female leaders) needed a way to learn & grow without taking significant time away from all else that they do. So, WiRL was built as an online conference for women who don't have time for conferences (but still want to learn)Today, it’s grown to be a robust professional development series for mid-level rising star women & the leaders who will eventually promote them. I curate the brightest thought leaders, blending online learning with group facilitation, to bring insights to action.A defining moment is when the CFO of one of my client groups defined WiRL & my overall systemic approach to programming as, "I see. I get it. You are loosening the ceiling while simultaneously raising the floor." Exactly.
