“After having met Joe on a number of occasions and witnessed his
passion for diversity and inclusion, I contracted with him to facilitate a ½
day diversity training program for staff members at my organization. My
desired outcome was that participants would walk away from the afternoon with a
common language and a better understanding of the critical issues of
diversity. Amazingly, as a result of Joe’s comfortable style and dynamic
presentation techniques, a dozen or so individuals immediately volunteered to
serve on a task force to continue the dialogue about diversity. He scored
a 4.75 (on a scale of 1 being low and 5 being high) for being articulate,
well-spoken, and engaging.”
-Laurie Pieper – VP of
Human Resources, Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce
"Joe is a must see. He captures his audience, leads
them down a path of vision, growth and purpose, to more effectively pursue the
mission of any organization wanting to take things to the next level."
-Jarriet DeWit, Blue
Cross Blue Shield
