What people have said
Our work with Fiona Daniel has been a real eye opener. Many Diversity and Inclusion leads are working tirelessly to move the dial in their organisations, create inclusive cultures and yet progress can be painfully slow. Fiona, expertly gets under the skin as to why diversity and inclusion is not progressing as it should and finds workable solutions to accelerate progress and impact.
