General information: 

Tough Convos is a platform dedicated to building inclusive company cultures. As a management consulting agency, we create content, strategies and experiential learning for professionals, companies and global organizations focused on becoming more inclusive, diverse and anti-racist. We are building and serving our multicultural community, inclusive leaders and allies of all cultures by making it safe and common to have the difficult discussions needed to move along the anti-racist journey of awareness and action change.
        
To grow  as an organization requires coming to terms with some uncomfortable realities.  It requires tough conversations. It requires saying and hearing things that may make you uncomfortable.  These conversations are necessary, but difficult to initiate.

That’s where Tough Convos comes in. We facilitate and guide discussions  to help teams develop a better understanding of the  multiple cultures within the organization. 

We work to develop  cultural intelligence  in order to foster a company culture  based on understanding, empathy, and allyship. We want to have  deep conversations about the things people don't want to say.

We are Black woman owned with multicultural, multilingual thought leaders & global citizens on our team.
We create custom content specializing in experiential learning, workshops, culture codes & best D&I practices.
We are focused on behavioural & cultural change via top-down leadership, brand values & org culture alignment.
