Gloria has a wealth of knowledge with her research background and has lived experience that provides a holistic perspective on discrimination. Gloria shares real life stories and initiatives that advocate for, and create real change while identifying the root cause of discrimination instead of simply providing bandaid solutions to symptoms. I’d highly recommend Gloria to any organisation that is serious about preventing and eliminating racism and discrimination in the workplace.
