Testimonials

The activities were highly effective in helping us understand concepts like appreciation, acceptance, and tolerance, as well as structuring our identity through various dimensions of inclusion such as relational, societal, and organizational.

The explanation of how DEI can be practically applied within an organization was the best feature, especially since DEI content online has always been all about theory but nothing much on the application / implementation process.

It was the learning experience of a lifetime. The course gave me more knowledge on open communication, acceptance, and appreciation that I could immediately implement in my personal and work life, even with my family members.

The awareness that tolerance on the inclusion scale can actually hamper outcomes and work performance was a key takeaway, and that there is a need to be aware of our unconscious bias. The facilitator was excellent, the class size was small enough to allow experience sharing.

The activities and materials were expertly prepared, covering all the necessary discussion themes. They made the session enjoyable and motivated participants to engage fully. I want to thank the facilitator for the job well done on the training delivery.
