The AdaMarie Method: Bespoke DEI Consulting for Change Makers

Identify areas for improvement, bring real change to your organization, and get AdaMarie Approved.

Data-Smart

Relieve overwhelm by using data to pinpoint exactly where opportunity gaps upstream are leading to uneven results downstream. By identifying root causes, we can help you triage your approach for the most impact.

Tailored

We meet your organization wherever you are. We’ll catalyze growth to suit your goals by tailoring solutions to meet your needs. Inclusion is not a one-size-fits-all template.

Action-Oriented

Our recommendations identify the exact steps you need to take to close opportunity gaps, and offer precise guidance to make sure best practices actually stick.

Intersectional

We’re looking at the big picture. Our intersectional method takes into account how race, age, neurodivergence, caretaker responsibilities, and disability status interact with gender in the workplace.
