TESTIMONIALS

I am a white, cisgender, heterosexual male who wants to lift up those around me. I’m not always sure how. In 20 minutes, I got some very practical ways to start conversations and start being a better, more intentional ally. Thank you! – Attendee, ASAE Annual Meeting


Bernadette is
a spark plug of energy and ideas. I wish I could hear her every week. – Graysen B., Constellation Brands

 

Bernadette Smith is an outstanding speaker on building constructive culture. Her engaging keynote was definitely not the standard diversity and inclusivity session. She connected to our specific mission and values and was authentic, approachable, and practical.Dr. Sandra Dunbar, Emory University
