Hello there!

My name is Dr. LaQuoia and I'm a Diversity Keynote Speaker and Consultant on a mission to help leaders create safe and inclusive environments where they and their teams can grow and thrive together.

Here’s what I’ve seen happen when organizations doN't GIVE THEIR LEADERS THE SUPPORT THEY NEED:

  • Leaders are frustrated and overwhelmed with all the DEI initiatives, and can't move forward
  • They tend to avoid having hard conversations, which can lead to passive aggressive behaviors
  • High employee turnover
  • Lack of a feeling of community and trust in the organization
  • Low referral rates/bad reputation for your organization 
  • Revenue growth directly decreases or remains stuck at a ceiling 
 
These are the kinds of problems I help solve for small and mid-size organizations.

MY STORY AS a DIVERSITY KEYNOTE SPEAKER & LEADERSHIP CONSULTANT

Leadership development and DEI are my passion because I love seeing the lightbulb go off when leaders finally get it. I enjoy creating a safe environment for all people to share their full self and their lived experiences so everyone can grow.
I directly experienced the negative impact of a  toxic work culture. So, I decided to turn my pain into purpose and  left my long & successful corporate career to




devote myself to creating healthier and thriving leaders and organizations.  It's crucial that organizations recognize the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion, not only for the betterment of all their leaders and people but also for the betterment of their bottom line.





LET'S CREATE BETTER LEADERS TOGETHER

I’m passionate about helping leaders create a culture of inclusion and belonging where employees are valued, seen, and heard. My approach is to combine my expertise in the GRACE Culture® framework with my experience in facilitating difficult but necessary conversations around race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and ability.

My speaking engagements include a wide range of topics that will empower leaders to cultivate an inclusive culture. From workshops and trainings to ongoing coaching and support, my goal is to give leaders peace of mind, knowing that they're equipped to navigate the current cultural shifts.

If you're ready to take the first step towards creating inclusive leadership and a safe work environment, I invite you to get in touch. Let's work together to create a culture of GRACE that nurtures growth, respect, diversity, equity, and inclusion for everyone on your team, including yourself.
