Leadership l Diversity l Empowerment

Leadership Development: We teach individuals how to be effective leaders, as well as incorporate those leadership skills into the Team concept.

Diversity Education:  We help people examine their personal bias and help them create effective strategies to become culturally competent, to eliminate unconscious bias and to become allies. 
 
Empowerment Training: We teach individuals to increase their personal power and we train them to be effective in both professional and personal arenas. Our approach initiates change, by shifting the mindset.

What people say about us...
Andre is a very effective teacher. He uses a very common sense approach to discuss what could be difficult topics. He is excellent at building on participants' own experiences to reveal not only how some widely held beliefs can hold a community back, but how that same community can overcome them.
 ~Sacil Armstrong, Newport News

Andre sparked our interest and pricked our minds and hearts to become a person of change. ~Jill Weinmaster, Robbinsdale

I have no doubt that Andre's style, humor and delivery enhances the probability that his intended message will be heard, digested and learned.  ~Tom Kelly, Wright County Attorney

Andre delivered a very inspiring presentation! Our students established almost an immediate connection with him and could easily relate with the stories he shared. Thank you very much for 'recycling our minds' and providing a different perspective on diversity issues to our students! ~Julia Miller, Roseville

Andre has a wonderful way of communicating so that our defense mechanisms and fear do not get in the way of learning about diversity and inclusion. He is a natural presenter and very easy to listen to. Staff appreciated his presentation on Race, Poverty and Wealth and responded very favorably on the evaluations. Some have scheduled him to speak at their department all staff meetings to continue to create awareness on issues of diversity and inclusion with co-workers. ~Maureen Connaughty, Stillwater

Core Programs

Bullying and Intimidation Intervention
Bullying and Cyber-intimidation harm schools and create costly liabilities in our workplaces. We find the best solutions for you both in our facilitated classroom discussion and through our online course.  

Creating a Respectful Environment
As our workplaces become more complex in ethnic, cultural and learning styles, we can empower employees to communicate and build upon the synergy of their diverse experiences to replace conflict with growth.  



Creating Better Customer Service
Changing demographics, aging populations and the diversity mix of our communities makes it ever more important to make sure we are conducting our business in ways that keep people coming back and delighted with us. 

Cultures of Poverty and Wealth
Why are people poor? People are poor largely for the same reasons as wealthy people. They were taught to be act in accordance to their families disposition. That education,leaves room for people to be re-educated to become more that the sum of their parts.

Cross Cultural Communication 

Conflict Management in the Organization
Finite resources, vague goals and limited time are the volatile mixtures that produce conflict. In this workshop, employees learn innovative methods to negotiate conflict productively.  

Cultural Sensitivity Coaching
Our world continues to change and our social and business networks are becoming increasingly integrated systems. Events in China can enhance or disrupt our daily lives, because we are all interconnected. This session explores the public and private roles we all play and the profitable lessons we can learn from each other.

Discrimination/Microinequities Training
Microinequities and discrimination can undermine workplace and social cooperation. In this session, supervisors and business leaders learn how to minimize unproductive and unprofitable behavior and optimize the discretionary efforts of their employees.
 
Sexual Harassment and the Hostile Work Environment
Workplaces free of harassment produce employees that are more willing and able to focus on work goals by increasing their personal effectiveness while allowing co-workers to grow. This session explores interpersonal techniques that bypass harassment and empower employee relations to maximize a return on investment.
