The work has become a lightning rod with programs cut, language scrubbed, and in some cases, leaders told by their own lawyers to distance themselves from it.
DEI, as we've known it, is no longer treated as a necessity. But the work still carries significant weight for your organization and its employees.
If you're trying to do right by your people without setting off a conflict you're not sure you have the capacity for, you're not alone.

Hi, I'm August
My work sits at the intersection of environmentalism, identity, power, and leadership and my approach rests on a simple truth that systems are created and sustained by people.
I built my consultancy, Cream City Conservation, into a Certified B Corp and a Best for the World honoree, and I've served on climate and water-equity task forces.
A global denizen with roots in Milwaukee, The Philippines, and based in Quintana Roo, Mexico, I work with organizations across the US and lead international restorative retreats.
