"Breaking the traditions of the past that no longer serve us are essential to DEI work. Jean’s refreshingly straightforward approach to creating tangible change inspires agency leaders at all levels to take actions that transform behavior and make a meaningful and lasting difference. If you’re ready to wake up every day and build a more inclusive company and world, you’ll want game-changing leaders like Jean by your side.”
