Lead With Intention. Build Stronger Relationships.
The way we lead, communicate, and work with others starts with understanding ourselves.
The Way We Show Up Shapes How We Work Together.
Do you struggle with difficult conversations, navigating conflict, or building trust with colleagues?
Perhaps you want to become a more effective leader, strengthen your team's communication, or better understand how cultural differences influence relationships.
Whether you're growing as an individual or developing a stronger team, meaningful change starts with self-awareness.
We help you recognize patterns, challenge assumptions, and develop practical skills to lead, communicate, and collaborate with intention.
Mosaic Education Network helps individuals and teams strengthen self-awareness, navigate challenges, build trust, and develop the skills to work better together.
Through coaching, assessments, and interactive learning experiences, we turn personal insight into meaningful action.
You did a terrific job of welcoming many voices and perspectives and taking our concerns seriously...
while also being very real about our expectations of ourselves and others. The group feedbcak and discussions allowed me to hear perspectives that might have stayed quiet in the workplace.

Metrics to make your interactions more productive
This is a great place to set benchmarks for personal and team growth.
The Intercultural Development Inventory® (IDI®) series is a workshop and 1-on-1 coaching for each participant that allows you to see your and your team's progression along a continuum of cross-cultural competence. Because of this, the IDI provides in-depth insights into how individuals and groups make sense of cultural differences, and also how they respond to cultural differences.

The Intercultural Conflict Style Inventory® (ICS®) is an assessment and interactive workshop series that helps you understand your conflict and communication style, so you can better resolve conflicts and solve problems across cultural boundaries.

Know your team's capacity for inclusion
The Intercultural Development Inventory® (IDI®) gives you tools to create a culture of belonging.
Watch as I share a personal story of me expanding my capacity for inclusion while working with an organization in Ghana. The IDI assesses intercultural competence, helping teachers and staff understand and adapt to diverse perspectives from the communities you serve, students, parents, and peers without compromising values. It offers a comprehensive model for self-awareness and bridge-building, guiding progress toward inclusive practices and academic achievement.
Have more effective communication with your team
The Intercultural Conflict Style Inventory® (ICS®) aims to enhance awareness of diverse communication approaches to make conflicts productive.
Watch as I explain the Intercultural Conflict Style Inventory (ICS) and its workshops that help educators, leadership, and staff grasp their communication and conflict management styles so you have more effective classroom management, explain district goals, and have productive conversations with students' caretakers. I share personal experiences to illustrate how misinterpretations can arise due to different styles.

Want a different approach?
I’ll create an informal weekly club for your staff where we use books as tools to break down bias
Dialogue and Action: A club for shifting workplace culture
Designed to foster connection and community, this weekly one-hour club uniquely gathers colleagues, regardless of their title or position, into honest and critical conversation.
By creating a space where authentic dialogue can occur, teams have the opportunity for greater productivity, empathy building, higher retention rates, and greater academic success.
This action-oriented club meets for up to eight weeks, focusing first on discussion and then on applying inclusion concepts specifically to your organization.
Participants leave with the tools and courage needed to create change from wherever they are.
Today’s leaders can no longer wish away or wait for someone else to engage their organizations about diversity and inclusion.
Dr. Crum drove this point home and provided real world experiences and examples when dealing with implicit bias by using the multi cultural, critical, reflective and practice (MCRP) professional development process.

Your questions answered
(and maybe a few more)
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.
Can we have a workshop shorter or longer than 2 hours?
Only the customizable workshops can be longer or shorter than 2 hours.
Will you (Dr. Crum) facilitate all sessions?
If she is available, yes! If not, she has a fantastic team that has been trained to deliver these workshops with the same results.
How do we decide who should be in which workshops?
It’s important to have a real mix of all staff in each workshop - it’s important not to separate leaders based on their position in the organization. Mixing up hierarchy is key.
Do you lead virtual and in-person workshops?
Yes. She has traveled across the country. She's also held plenty on Zoom.
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.
