I help individuals, corporations, and organizations to navigate the journey to inclusion and cultural competence through the power of story. Each individual is a story; our society has a story; our organization has a story; our corporation has a story. Who do our stories include; who do they exclude? How can we create a new story that includes all of us in an equitable way? Our custom-designed workshops provide participants with awareness, skills and tools for utilizing sound diversity and intercultural theory, necessary to foster and sustain inclusion in any environment.

The greatest tool for cross-cultural understanding is the simple process of listening to and telling our stories. Researchers have discovered that the human brain has a natural affinity for narrative communication, so storytelling has the ability to connect individuals of great diversity with ease. Dialogue emphasizes listening to deepen understanding and invites discovery. Authentic Dialogue is a process of genuine interaction through which diverse participants listen to and engage each other deeply enough to be changed by what they’ve heard.
