Benefits & Outcomes for YOU

The EI² Facilitator Certification is rooted in my signature, alchemical approach of emotionally intelligent equity and inclusion leadership development. Using my own proven proprietary framework, as well as a privatized curriculum from best in class leaders and organizations, the EI² Facilitator Certification has a balanced interplay of racial healing work of SELf-transformation along with courageous leadership competencies for school and systemic-transformation.
