The Problem Statement
Why Traditional Leadership Training Falls Short
Are you struggling to foster inclusive teams where everyone thrives?
Do you find that traditional leadership models fail to address real-world complexities in the workplace?
Lack of inclusive leadership leads to:
• High turnover and disengaged employees
• Unconscious biases affecting decision-making
• Missed opportunities for innovation and growth

Meet the Founder
Hi, I am Yolánda L. Chase
When organizations are looking to build next generation human capital strategies that align with the growth goals of the business in scope and scale, that’s when I put my 34+ years of HR expertise to work, developing solid bottom up workplace inclusion and diversity program frameworks, or optimizing and “leveling up” existing ones. I wholeheartedly believe in the value and purposeful work associated with inclusive and diverse workplaces.
