“Yesterday we kicked off our annual Thought Ensemble all-company meeting virtually with an incredible Diversity, Equity and Inclusion session with Dr. Nika White. We could not have found a better facilitator. I recommend looking into Nika White Consulting if you're shopping for a professional DEI facilitator for your team or business."

Joseph Keys | Manager – Strategy and Technology Consultant, Thought Ensemble

"Just wanted to let you know again that we really enjoyed and appreciated the training and strategic facilitation yesterday. I was very impressed with how gracefully and engagingly you presented this challenging topic."

Sally Boman | Communications Director, Upstate Forever

“Nika White is a consummate professional! Her dynamic presentation style and authenticity offered the audience of our “Connection’s Women Leaders of the Upstate at Furman University” the opportunity to learn from her expert knowledge on Leadership Diversity and how to apply real world solutions daily in their corporate roles. Nika’s passion for education and her sincere desire to help others engages her audience and create such a positive environment for everyone involved. Nika, we look forward to your next powerful presentation!”

Victoria Kirby | Director at the Center for Corporate and Professional Development, Furman University

“If you are looking for someone to provide knowledge and insight into the diversity and inclusion paradigm, a person who can provide a measured yet passionate appeal to what makes D&I an imperative and not simply a luxury, Nika is the perfect choice. As the keynote for the NC Minority and Women Business Enterprise Coordinators’ Network Conference, she challenged our members to continue the work and used examples from her own experiences to demonstrate the impact of economic inclusion. Intelligent and wise, Nika is a thought-leader grounded in practicality. Her star will continue to rise.”

Denisha Harris | City of Greenville, NC

“Phenomenal job selecting the speaker. She was awesome and the agenda pushed people to talk about topics that are normally off the table to discuss. She pushed most of us out of our comfort zone and ensured we spoke about important items in a “safe” environment.”

Latondra Bennett | Employee Resource Manager, GE

“Nika White’s leadership in delivering clear D&I direction has been extremely valuable to the Chamber and the community as a whole.”

Carlos Phillips | President and CEO, Greenville Chamber

“After my first conversation with Dr. White, I was certain she understood the challenges our organization face. It was apparent that she would help us bridge the gap in moving our current D&I approach to one that had the level of rigor needed for long-term sustainability. While I knew the event would be engaging and aid the group in developing our D&I strategy, Dr. White provided content and thoughts that will move our organization forward. Moreover, the council has a greater understanding of their role in our D&I journey. The council chairs were beyond appreciative of this learning opportunity. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us!

Cenina B. Saxton, Ed.D. | Organizational Effectiveness Consultant at Southern Nuclear – Human Resources

“Thank you so much for the incredibly informative and inspiring Diversity & Inclusion Board training. May many more leaders in this city and beyond get an opportunity to learn from Dr. White’s insights.”

Araceli Hernández-Laroche | PhD Assistant Department Chair, University of South Carolina Upstate

“Your training session was not only well received but helpful in helping HA be a better place for people to work and give their efforts. You got the team involved and challenged in their thinking which is what we hoped would help us as a group become more open minded so we can be supportive of the many kinds of people that make up US workforce. We would like to have you back to help us progress further and thank you for your contribution.”

Karen Lehto | HR Director, Hoshizaki America

I've been very fortunate to have met and worked with Ms. White in several capacities. She and I served briefly together on the YWCA Board of Directors and her current position as VP Diversity & Inclusion at Greater Greenville Chamber of Commerce. She has also participated in KC Business Group meetings and Capehart Concepts Seminars. Ms. White's professionalism and dedication is at the highest level. I've enjoyed working with Ms. White and will continue to work with Ms. White over the years. I highly recommend Ms. White and all that she does for our wonderful community of Greenville and the Upstate of South Carolina.

Kim Capehart

"Nika. thank you so much for speaking to our CPA's and various professionals in our Atlanta and Greenville offices. Your presentation was engaging, thought-provoking, and also action-orient­ed around fostering an inclusive and diverse work environment. Your in depth knowledge and expertise in the areas of inclusion and diversity stem from your true passion for creating organi­zations and a world where everyone can thrive because of their differences rather than in spite of differences. Thank you for the time that you invested in delivering dynamic and impactful workshops for our teams."
