What Leaders are Saying...

  • “Working with Kisha transformed my approach to teaching and leading organizational change for equity and inclusion. She helped me understand much better power dynamics and how I come across to others in conversations and presentations. Her insights and suggestions have changed how I speak and carry myself in large and small group settings, how I write emails and policy documents, and what I think is important and anticipate might happen in any interaction with others. If you want to expand your world view around power and profoundly alter your practice for leading change, talk to Kisha!”

    SP - Professor, Academia and Higher Education 

  • “Over several years working together, Kisha has become my go-to counselor on many of the subtlest, most challenging issues my teams and I face. Kisha's distinctive combination of gentleness and fearlessness creates a space safe enough to discuss the most delicate questions of race, gender, class and inclusion. Her approach unites intellectual rigor with deeply human warmth, and our dialogues have helped me in so many ways -- some expected, some less so. I would recommend Kisha wholeheartedly to anyone interested in fostering positive change in their organizations, in themselves, and in the larger world.”

    RM - Executive, Arts and Entertainment

  • "Kisha helped me navigate cultural and organizational barriers, and helped me understand the mindset, biases, and emotional responses to change and how to foster openness and adapt to such changes. She equipped me with tools to communicate effectively, to build trust, stronger relationships and to foster confidence and resilience. She also kept me accountable to embrace and drive change both personally and professionally. With our work together I feel as though I have evolved into a more well-rounded, resilient leader who drives change, and more effectively contributes to a thriving organizational culture."

    KR - Director, Aviation and Aerospace Industry

  • “Kisha provided facilitation for our annual retreat meeting three years in a row.  Each session was carefully and collaboratively designed to accomplish our short- and long-term goals related to our high performing board journey.  She helped us challenge ourselves and each other to  prioritize Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion as part of that journey. The resources and tools she provided and helped us develop were critical to our progress between retreat meetings.”
