Transform How Your Organization Works.
Through organizational assessments, strategic consulting, and customized training, we help organizations build more effective, and inclusive workplaces.
A lack of inclusion might be hurting your organization more than you realize...
Communication breakdowns, unresolved conflict, unclear expectations, leadership gaps, and unwritten workplace rules can undermine even the strongest organizations.
Sometimes the challenges aren't obvious. They show up in employee disengagement, high turnover, strained relationships, inconsistent practices, and a disconnect between organizational values and everyday experiences.
Your Workplace Culture Is Shaping Your Results.
Is It Working for You?
We help organizations look beneath the surface, identify patterns, and develop practical strategies to strengthen workplace culture and organizational effectiveness.

Real Learning. Meaningful Action.
What a terrific conference! It gave me a path that I could immediately put into practice.
One of the highlights for me was Dr. Melissa Crum! Her presentation was clear, filled with humor and gave me a path that I could immediately put into practice. She was able to put things in an easy to relate way which gave me more tools with which to focus on for my organization.

Audits: Shine a light on the ignored areas at your workplace
This is the best place to start.
Through a six-part organization-wide process, my team and I investigate systemic barriers, biases, and inequities within policies, practices, and workplace culture to give you a highly customized diversity, equity, and inclusion action plan.
We’ll read through your policies and guidelines and hold focus groups with leadership and staff to uncover unspoken rules that are holding your institution back from leading the way.
Audits are not essential, but are a great place to start, so we can recommend the best path for workshops and further action.
Now you’re ready for...
From Awareness to Action:
Building Stronger Workplace Cultures
Help your people turn learning into everyday practices that strengthen trust, improve collaboration, and create more inclusive workplace cultures.
Using storytelling, critical reflection, and facilitated group discussions, participants develop practical skills to navigate challenges, address exclusion, lead with greater self-awareness, and influence organizational relationships and outcomes.
Subtle Acts of Exclusion
Learn to recognize and address small but significant actions that can harm inclusion in your organization. This session will empower you to transform these moments into opportunities for trust, equity, and support.
Brave Space Practice
Move beyond the concept of "safe spaces" to cultivate environments where difficult conversations can happen with empathy and accountability.
Intersectional Leadership
Understand how identity, power, and workplace culture shape leadership so you can move from self-doubt to self-trust and build teams where everyone thrives.
Transform Organizational Culture
Through Intentional Practice
Organizational change requires more than a shared vision. It requires examining the norms, behaviors, and practices that shape how people work together.
Designed for leaders and staff, these interactive learning experiences help organizations uncover hidden cultural patterns, challenge unproductive norms, and translate organizational values into everyday actions.
Investigating Dominant Culture Norms
Unpack how dominant cultural norms like defensiveness and fear of conflict shape dynamics in the workplace. Explore actionable strategies that promote equity and trust within their organizations.
Operationalizing Values
Bring your organizational values to life by defining behaviors that align with your mission and vision. This hands-on workshop offers clear frameworks for creating a shared language, reducing subjectivity in decision-making, and embedding values into performance metrics and everyday practices.
Customized Learning That Moves Organizations Forward
No two organizations have the same challenges. That's why we design learning experiences around your workplace culture, leadership needs, and organizational goals.
From strengthening communication and navigating conflict to aligning organizational values with everyday practices, our workshops help teams move beyond awareness and put new knowledge into action.
Programs are available in person, virtually, or through customized multi-session engagements.
I am confident to hold meaningful conversations with my company.
“Dr. Melissa Crum is a phenomenal diversity practitioner and educator. I have been fortunate enough to see her present twice, where I learned about numerous subjects regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion that I am confident to hold meaningful conversations upon returning to my company.
Her vast knowledge in this arena have led to invaluable discussions stemming from her guidance. I look forward to working with her at future events.

Your questions answered
(and maybe a few more)
What kind of organizations do you work with?
Our process works best with organizations that have fewer than 250 staff. We work with all organizations; from corporate businesses to nonprofits and B-corps with everything in between.
Do you help with registration?
Sometimes, when organizations register large groups and need to repeat workshops (because there are more than 50 people), we are asked to register participants in different sessions. There is an extra fee for this, but it’s no problem to do.
How many people can attend the workshops?
We have a maximum capacity of 50 people to keep the sessions intimate and interactive.
For organizations with more than 50 people we can hold multiple identical workshops.
Which workshop should I book?
Set up a discovery call with Dr. Crum and she can help you make a decision. It's free! Click here.
Will you (Dr. Crum) facilitate all sessions?
If she is available, yes! If not, she has a fantastic team that I have trained who can deliver these workshops with the same results.
Hmmm, none of your proposed workshops meet our objectives. Will you create a customized workshop?
Yes, absolutely. Just get in touch and we can have a chat to put together a proposal.
Do you lead virtual and in-person workshops?
Yes. We have traveled across the United States. She has also held plenty on Zoom.
The training sparked interest and made staff question how they teach works of art.
This session allowed our staff to start thinking about their teaching in important new ways. They were already skilled at critical thinking (both doing so themselves and prompting others to do so), and are in the habit of reflecting with their peers after tours.
But now, they have a shared language with which to discuss issues of multiculturalism and an interest in continuing that conversation. They had the opportunity to practice reflections and discussions, and they worked in groups to design a gallery talk about one object.
The training sparked interest, made them question how they teach works of art at the Crow Collection, and started a conversation that is continuing both at formal trainings and casually between educators as they compare notes.
