Working with Michelle & Mel:

Michelle is a globally recognized diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) consultant. She advises organizations in the business and sporting sectors on DEI strategy development and implementation and works directly with women leaders to advance their careers.

Mel is a speaker, creator and consultant with over 15 years of professional experience. As part of Lead to Soar, she teaches courses that focus on equipping women with what they most need to advance and earn leadership positions, namely — business, strategic, and financial acumen.

We know an organization's DEI strategy and implementation plan requires time, effort, investment and buy-in from many stakeholders, especially at the highest levels. So engaging with the leaders and custodians of the firm, with interactive, thought-provoking, energetic sessions designed to unlock the potential of collective wisdom, is an area of strength for us.

​In parallel, we also help team members to deploy the ‘one percenters’. Small, incremental, defensive, tactical actions that can be highly valued and contribute to the longer-term outcome.
