Here are your facilitators, Diedra and Maureen, talking about the course!
Who Are Your Facilitators?
I specialize in the needs of women, people of color, and queer leaders dedicated to social justice-induced systemic change and infiltration in their organizational culture, mission, vision, goals, product, and/or service. I have been a Director of Company Culture Transformation for a racial equity tech industry nonprofit, a Chief Development Business Officer, a Chief Operations Officer, a senior curriculum writer and training designer, and lead facilitator. Today I use these work experiences as well as important life experiences to Cultivate Intersectional Leadership in myself, coaching and thought partnerships for organizations and individuals, and supporting space for team/department and whole organization conversations at organizations interested in real racial equity and inclusion.
I focus on disrupting White Supremacy in my own practice, in my day-to-day engagement with the community, and in my work as a consultant for organizational development and systemic transformation. I have been a high school teacher and principal in Oakland, CA., a Chief Operating Officer of a national racial equity organization, and a lead facilitator and coach for equity with executive teams, boards, and staff at a variety of social impact organizations. As a community member, I’ve been a Police Commissioner and organizer with local groups dedicated to ending police violence against marginalized communities, specifically Black people who are exponentially targeted by state terror. After more than 20 years of work in education and supporting social impact organizations focused on racial justice and intersectional leadership, I feel even more strongly that we must engage tirelessly in our governmental and educational systems with an emphasis on interrupting our personal and systemic perpetuation of historical disparities. Using the tools of Cultivating Intersectional Leadership is my commitment to a lifetime of brainwashing to undo.
