Dr. Kevin Ahmaad Jenkins

A catalyst for change that opens the path to healing dialogue.

Dr. Kevin provides a roadmap and guides your company through the art of authentic engagement that reconstructs corporate culture.

Program takeaways:

• Provide the ‘Winning Race’ conversation starters to launch critical conversations with empathy.
• Recognize unheard employees as the experts of their own experiences.
• Implement clear and effective dialogue curriculum that interactively & inclusively embraces all perspectives.

• Why regular inclusive dialogue increases revenue while enriching culture.
• How to outline and personalize an Inclusion-first culture.

This powerful topic can be delivered as a keynote or workshop for your team.

“Win When” carves a roadmap to professional development through research, humor, and powerful storytelling.

Leaning on his past and present platforms, Dr. Kevin curated the best-practices of Black former professional athletes, veterans, and physicians that confronts, informs, and heals the consequences of bias in the corporate America.

Countless racial and ethnic minority employees share their struggles with race and identity in the workplace, the suffocation of success, and a looming fear of failure with no long-lasting DEI solutions.

Whether a teammate is unaware, indifferent, or ready to act, Win When, leverages necessary power, authentic empathy, and sustainable strategies to bringing equity to action.

Program takeaways:

• Understand the concepts of structural racism, inclusion & diversity, & overall equity.
• Discover how organizational culture shapes the motivation, scope, and execution of equity.
• Investigate the process and measurement of achieving equity through contemporary best practices.
• This program can be tailored for corporate audiences, healthcare professionals, and athletes.

Lopsided performance reviews and differential employee engagement hurt companies far worse than simply having no DE&I strategy. Dr. Kevin reimagines communication, incentives, and socialization to promote high-performance work environments.
