“Diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just a checkmark for good business, it’s a way to transform the world.” ~ Dr. Nika White I help maximize people’s and organizations' effectiveness, potential, and capacity. My overall praxis and scholarship are in organizational development, specifically focusing on systematically operationalizing strategic and intentional efforts that foster diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB). I help workplaces optimize systems and culture. This holistic approach centers organizations’ most essential asset - its human capital. The heart of my work is at the intersection of organizational development and industrial psychology. I systematically move people and organizations toward change to drive impact. To ensure the alignment of goals and objectives for sustainable transformation, I rely on my extensive experience in marketing communications. I am an international authority and fearless amplifier of all things DEIB. As an award-winning management and leadership consultant, keynote speaker, published author, and executive practitioner for DEI efforts across corporate, government, non-profit, and education sectors, I help organizations break barriers and integrate DEIB into their business frameworks with a human-centered approach. My work has led to my designation by Forbes as a Top 10 D&I Trailblazer. Over my 20+ years of leadership, I have worked with hundreds of organizations and managed millions in business assets for clients. I frequently present keynote speeches and nationwide presentations on team engagement through belonging, organizational leadership, strategic diversity, and intentional inclusion. My talks bring a mixture of expertise, passion, vision, and authentic style to create holistic takeaways for audiences. I am an award-winning management and leadership consultant, keynote speaker, and published author, including my latest release, Inclusion Uncomplicated: A Transformative Guide to Simplify DEI, published by Forbes Books. As the founder and lead principal consultant of Nika White Consulting (NWC), a full-service boutique DEIB consulting firm, I led a team with the mission of making DEI practical so that organizations can shift systems to cultivate a culture of belonging and go to the next level of the DEI journey.
