Actions Speak Louder! 

Renowned leadership and DEI consultant Deanna Singh uses narratives, case studies, interactive exercises and the latest DEI research to show you how to:

  • Gain buy-in from stakeholders at all levels of your company for DEI initiatives
  • Design and implement inclusive policies, from writing job advertisements and interviewing to conducting performance reviews
  • Create a retention plan that considers and prioritizes the needs of underrepresented employees
  • Train your DEI trainers–who are too often thrust into their roles with little instruction or clarity – to audit your “racial climate” and hold you accountable in the future

As Singh has seen time and time again, with the right tools, any organization can change meaningfully from the inside out!
