Course Description

Join us for a conversation with Susie Silver, Senior Consultant at The Diversity Movement. Susie is a consultant, trainer, and content creator; and an LGBTQ+ subject matter expert. She is passionate about educating others on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion issues and supporting actionable change in the LGBTQ+ community.

Susie will be joining us to talk about allyship. As organizations roll out D&I initiatives, often allyship isn’t formalized into a program. While many are familiar with the term, there is a lot of uncertainty about what it means to us as individuals – What can I do? Is there something I shouldn’t do? What if I do or say the wrong thing?

Susie will demystify allyship and share tips and strategies to make allyship approachable and actionable. We hope you join the conversation!

Learning Objectives:


  • Discuss the role of allyship in DEI efforts

  • Recall key allyship terminology

  • Demonstrate practical and actionable allyship strategies

Jina is a consultant and speaker on diversity, inclusion, culture, and belonging. She creates training programs and workshops to help clients move forward in their D&I journey. She is a storyteller and speaks candidly about her experiences, hard lessons, and ‘aha’ moments that helped her understand the importance of individuality, the value of curiosity, and the courage it takes to “just” be yourself. Often described as “approachable” and “relatable” by her clients, she works with purpose and the intention of being engaging, practical, and immediately applicable to real-world situations. Jina draws from her unique background and mix of work experiences to offer examples and share insights designed to benefit everyone across the workplace ecosystem – executives, management, employees, and customers.

Previously, she was Principal Consultant at EtiennePartners (EP), a boutique consulting firm that offered a unique strategy development, workshops & coaching to leaders, executives and entrepreneurs. Co-founded with her husband, EP was a full-time partnership in both work and life. Although in different professions, their work often intersected around the importance of self-awareness in leadership and navigating conflict within teams. Combining their experiences, backgrounds, and work led to the development of their unique approach to D&I, which she continues to use in her practice today.

Etienne Consulting's work is informed by their unique mix of experience in public accounting & business consulting, association management & member engagement, and diversity & inclusion consulting and training.
