— Jordan Hinson, Human Resources Business Partner, Pike Enterprises
Audrey and Mariana Strategies were a great partner to help DT Global deeply examine how we treat each other, our written and unwritten policies on DE&I, and how we can be more inclusive as an organization. I really appreciated their facilitation of working sessions around race and identity which ultimately led to building trust. I know I personally learned a lot and appreciated their professional and process-oriented approach.

They are incredibly professional and very skilled and working with a wide audience. They have worked with both our junior and senior staff, and have been poised while still answering all of our staff’s individual concerns.

What Our Clients Say About Our Workshops

Audrey exceeded all our expectations for our anti-harassment and diversity and inclusion training. She made everyone feel so comfortable and heard and our team was able to easily open up to her with questions, concerns and comments. Our team has experienced more understanding and communication around inclusion and how to handle future situations.
— Jenna Wilson & Cary Vaughan, Co-Owners, Ace & Jig
Our employees are still raving about the harassment prevention workshop. We have noticed the differences, and they are practicing our value of empowerment more. We are more than grateful for Mariana Strategies’ services and the impact the workshop has had on our organization.
— Mayerline Estrella, Action Against Hunger
This was a fantastic [Respect in the Workplace] workshop overall. There was a great balance struck between productivity and ease. Audrey and her co-presenter were engaging and energetic without detracting from the seriousness of the subject matter. I most valued the fact that the presenters did not shy away from nuances while ensuring that the conversation was not isolating to those with less experience with discussions about microaggressions, harassment, etc., as well as the fact that the conversation was rooted in affirming, person-centric strategies while being firm about maintaining accountability.
— Workshop participant
One thing that I didn’t expect to be a major takeaway for me in the [Respect in the Workplace] training was the connection to ensuring safety and being able to be authentically yourself (within professional boundaries) while at work. This should be a clear connection but so often, we are meant to minimize who we are and what we are able to bring to our work, which leads to less safety, satisfaction, productivity, etc. In addition to being an active bystander and speaking up for others, I also felt more empowered to stand up for myself & my peers when it comes to pushing back against the pressures to lessen myself in this way.
