We love sharing with journalists from all corners of the world to spread awareness about impactful stories on inclusion, belonging, and thriving at work. If you’re a member of the media and you want to connect, send an email to my team at, kristen@inclusionantion.org.

I’ve spoken on hundreds of stages, in-person and virtual. My audiences always leave equipped with tools for belonging, inclusive leadership, allyship, and equity. They are both challenged to recognize biases and ready to make diversity matter for good.

Every program I’ll do with you will be tailored to your audience and your event. No one knows your group better than you. Let’s talk about what will make your people do more than sit up and listen. Let’s talk about what will make them inspired to change.

Talking about race isn’t easy. Engaging with stories of bias and exclusion is a hard-earned skill. Transformative leadership centered on inclusion matters. You need an expert to get you there. Let’s start talking today.
