"In my heart of hearts, I believe it’s about exploring identity. What is your own bias? What are your privileges? And what are you willing   to   do   about them?"

Here's how Tania gets it done

As an Inclusion and Belonging Keynote Speaker and Consultant, I use my experience as a black woman who grew up in an all-white suburb, my ability as an improviser and performer, and my expertise in creating inclusive and equitable cultures to educate leaders and employees on inclusive practices and guide them through self-reflection, action planning, activation, and accountability. 

 Here are some of Tania's clients

“Tania has quickly become one of our most dependable, most sought-after speakers covering DEI-related issues. There is no one we trust more to enter any room and earn participants’ trust, navigate difficult conversations with grace, ensure everyone is included, and leave our members with something to think about and grow from.”

"If you're seeking antiracist assessment, education and clear action steps, look no further than Tania Richard! Her custom-tailored Keynotes will insightfully address past/present harm AND ground your organization in the common vocabulary and ideas needed to prevent future harm. In addition to being a superb listener who doesn't miss a beat, Tania has a magical way of supporting white clients new to the concepts of white supremacy and white fragility while simultaneously caring for the vulnerable BIPOC sharing the room."
