FAQs

Transformational Inclusion coaching and consulting provides a brave space for yourself, your team/group, and your organization to explore biases and determine how to overcome them. You will learn how to become more skilled in cultivating inclusion and equity. Working with an Belonging-focused coach or consultant can support learning how to lead equitably, support diversity and inclusion, and how to advocate for and implement positive change.
The issues of belonging and inclusion are multiple and complex. This means we all have work to do – though we each have different work to do. I can provide the support and accountability you need to do the work required for creating a more equitable environment.

This work requires a long-term commitment that has to go beyond short coaching and consulting periods for there to be truly transformational and sustainable change. While workshops, articles, books, and videos can create room for conversation and motivate others to do the work, more time has to be invested in reversing the harmful biases and unjust practices that have been created in our world.
I can work with you and your organization to come up with a realistic yet effective plan for creating a more equitable environment. BUT there will be work to do.
Reversing harm takes time, but it is *still* only a fraction of the time our fellow humans have experienced through discrimination and trauma through generations – you need to be committed to doing the work. The payoff will be worth it: when people feel belonging in organizations, everyone flourishes—including the organization’s bottom line.

YES. A workplace where everyone feels valued and supported will experience improved workplace culture and morale. These have been tied to seeing improvements in productivity, collaborative work, innovative and creative thinking, and employee retention. Also, it’s just more humane and what we ALL deserve for ourselves and our communities.
Did you know that in 2022, 76% of job seekers and employees said that DEIBJ was a key factor when evaluating a workplace?
Here are some other statistics for you: Companies that are more diverse are:
1.7x more innovative
36% more likely to outperform their competitors
2.6x more likely to retain their workforce
Earning 2.3x more cash flow per employee
Integrating effective belonging and inclusion practices/policies into your organization is not just a good and ethical thing to do; it is foundational to the longevity, profitability, and overall success of your organization.

Truly transformational change has to start with your leadership. It must be a top-down AND ground-up effort for it to work.
If your leadership isn’t committed to change, consider sharing your concerns with your HR department. Consider sharing data and statistics as to the effects belonging and inclusion may be having or could have on your organization.
You can also focus on what is within your own control, and get support through leadership coaching or consulting to learn how to lead more equitably by example. This approach, of course, needs to be nuanced by the degrees of power, privilege, and marginalization various people experience, but I can support you in claiming the power you DO have to help promote equitable transformation.
