“Dr. Wise and her team far exceeded our expectations. From walking us through the process to implementing both phases (assessment and focus groups) of our audit, the Wise team demonstrated supreme expertise and focus. We had a number of special requests, including increasing our focus group participation, throughout the process that they willingly and expertly accommodated. They have helped us lay the foundation for building on our DEIB efforts and I highly recommend the Wise Group.”

“From pre-readings to facilitated discussions to group breakouts, her work with our board to cultivate a racial equity lens for our organization was invaluable. She accounted for differences in each individual’s knowledge base and life experience, pushed us to understand other perspectives, and laid a foundation for our staff and board to carry the work forward beyond our day with her. Her knowledge base is extensive and she’s adept at reading the room, allowing her to know exactly when to step in, when to step back, and when a conversation needs a little more time or facilitation.”
