Diversity and inclusion isn’t magic. It’s about understanding difference and treating people how they need to be treated.

Looking for consulting services in inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility?

Anyone can call themselves a consultant in inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA), but few can back it up with such an extensive resume in the IDEA space.

Michael comes to this work with 20 years of experience in IDEA: 7 years developing and delivering IDEA solutions for one of the world’s largest professional services firms and 13 years working as an IDEA consultant for a wide variety of clients. That depth of experience means his approach is tested and proven, and when he advises a client, he has the expertise needed to get the results you want.

Michael doesn’t do everything. He limits his consulting work to areas where he has the knowledge and experience to deliver successful engagements. Those areas include:

Advisory Services

Big consulting projects are one thing, but sometimes, what you need is an hour or two of a subject matter expert who can provide you with direction. Because of Michael’s depth of experience, he can provide invaluable information that will help you achieve your goals.

Whether you need guidance on how to get something started, a review of your IDEA strategy, assistance with a crisis, or advice on a particular project, Michael provides Advisory Services with no minimum time required, billed in 15-minute increments.

Get started by reaching out to Michael about your Advisory Services needs.

Coaching

Michael is an experienced coach and advisor and provides coaching services to two specific groups:

  1. IDEA practitioners, HR professionals, IDEA champions: The people who do the work. Sometimes the people doing the work need someone to talk to, to help guide them and ensure they’re successful.

  2. Senior Leadership (C-Suite, General Managers, Board Directors): Sometimes, the people in charge need someone to talk to in a safe, judgment-free space, to provide guidance on specific issues, or just how to be more inclusive leaders.

If you’re looking for a coach, connect with Michael to discuss how he can support you.

Incremental Chief IDEA Officer

Sometimes organizations aren’t ready, or can’t afford, or simply don’t want to have a Chief IDEA Officer. Why you don’t have one doesn’t matter. What matters is that you need someone at a senior level with deep experience who can help get things done.

An Incremental Chief IDEA Officer is more than a consultant: they invest in the success of an organization’s IDEA efforts. As an Incremental Chief IDEA Officer, Michael’s job is to help organizations on their IDEA journey.

Whether you need someone one day a month, one day a week, or even more, Michael can help you achieve your goals. Reach out to Michael to start a conversation about how he can support your organization.

Data and Measurement

One of Michael’s specialties is data and measurement: gathering information that helps you make informed decisions about your IDEA efforts. Without data, you may be a “solution looking for a problem.”

Michael has extensive experience in gathering and analyzing data for this exact purpose. He can help you with what data you should be collecting, how best to get it to ensure success, and how to interpret the data to understand where to go next.

Learning Programs

Learning is a critical component of an IDEA journey. How can you expect people to behave in a certain way if you don’t set expectations and provide them with knowledge?

Michael is a respected trainer and facilitator, having developed and delivered thousands of different learning programs on inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility. He provides an interactive learning experience where people can engage in a discussion that is safe, respectful, and provides people with valuable knowledge to help them be agents of positive change.
