She created the Belonging Quotient® (BQ), a philosophy and framework that helps leaders, brands, and organizations leverage belonging to advance their strategy on people, performance, and purpose. The BQ measures how well people feel seen, heard, valued, and respected in a culture of belonging, which enables them to perform at their best for the common good. She provides training, consultation, and coaching, as well as keynotes on belonging, leadership, speak-up, diversity, and inclusion based on her BQ model.
