I met Dr. Sharzad this past year thought a mutual business networking group. Within moments into our first conversation, I knew I had made a really good friend because she thinks deeply about many things and seeks to make the world around her better. As an author, speaker, consultant, and coach, Sharzad turns her lens on corporate culture. Taking a deep dive to assess the culture of the workplace – vertically and horizontally – she makes important recommendations for the C-Suite execs to incorporate diversity, equity, and inclusion. Her services create engaging cultures where employees give their all and decide to stay with the company, ultimatly positively impacting the company's brand and bottom line.

Sharzad and I talked about how companies can create a meaningful hybrid workplace to honor employees with families (read: women) by first understanding company values, and then showing the value of meaningful engagement with diversity, equity, and inclusion, followed by the implementation of strategies, policies, processes, and procedures that enjoin a more cohesive paid workplace.
