My Mission

My mission is to paint a compelling picture of existing inequities that provoke companies and individuals to take the necessary actions to build and sustain an internal culture and society that is fair and equitable.

 

I see the world through the lens of inclusion based on the belief that Inclusion and the ability to change are essential parts of life -- permeating every aspect and fundamental for successful careers and organizations.  

 

My presentations, speeches, coaching, workshops, and webinars are geared to heighten people’s awareness and to inspire them to take action so they can have a life that is richer, more successful and rewarding.

Topics

Unconscious Bias and Behavioral Expectations

Using different communication styles as the vehicle, this speech takes the audience on a humorous journey exploring differences associated with masculine and feminine communication styles. While the words may sound the same, their interpretation is significantly different. These disparities make or break teams, leaders, relationships, sales, and marketing strategies.

Transforming Diverse Perspectives into Opportunities

Fundamental to developing an inclusive work environment or successful conversation is acknowledging and accepting differences. Most people limit diversity to race, ethnicity, religious, physical and mental capabilities, age, gender, or sexual orientation or preference. This session focuses on ways to embrace differences and conflicts that may arise as healthy parts of life, using them as steppingstones to expand insights, understanding, problem-solving solutions, and awareness of oneself and others.

Building an Inclusive Mindset: Increase engagement, innovation, team, and communication success

This session discusses how an inclusive mindset is fundamental to an equitable and safe workplace, successful teams, increased sales, and dynamic leadership. This program is action-oriented by providing practical tools and approaches.

How to Conduct Successive Inclusive Virtual Meetings

Think You Suffer From Imposter Syndrome? Think again

We all experience attacks of imposter syndrome and the fear of being discovered as a fraud. It’s a common ailment especially for women. The session takes an innovative approach to treating this malady by transforming it from a negative experience into a neutral one that can be a confidence builder.

Drilling Holes Through the Glass Ceiling: A systemic approach to its final annihilation

This session does a deep dive into the three primary factors that keep the glass ceiling firmly in place. Participants leave the session with specific actions to chip away at these factors until the glass ceiling is shattered once and for all.

Building Your CareerCapital: Use your career to live the life you want

When we think about taking care of ourselves, it is usually focused on our physical or mental health. But what about our career health? Few of us think about our career as an investment portfolio that secures our financial future so we can create the life we want to live. Attendees gain a set of practical tools to grow and expand their career opportunities, increase their confidence, manage the barriers to their success, and build a robust network.

​

Salary Negotiation is More Than a Paycheck

This session examines the components of salary negotiation, defines the difference between salary and compensation, expands participants’ understanding of what is involved in the negotiation process, and learn techniques required for negotiating a compensation package that aligns with their skills and experiences.
