Diversity & Inclusion Leaders

“Dr. Candace Warner has a tremendous ability to make sensitive, sometimes uncomfortable topics approachable and engaging for teams. She balances a data-driven approach with a natural gift for storytelling to reach audiences, create “aha moments,” and inspire action. I’m familiar with her work on developing and leading training curriculum, special events/presentations, leading focus groups, individual coaching, data analysis, and strategic planning.

I would highly recommend her and her company, PEOPLE3, for any of the above. The extra preparation time she puts in and her passion for providing an excellent experience are apparent in her finished products!”

“People3 was instrumental in helping our team get on the same page about diversity, inclusion, and how to create a truly inclusive environment for our team members. They helped us figure out where we are now, and what our next steps should be. We highly recommend Candace and her team if you’re looking for an engaging and insightful training for your team, and we look forward to working with them on future initiatives!”

“People3 provided a training session for our team on diversity, inclusion and unconscious bias. Daniel, who was our presenter, customized the training session to our mental health setting and helped us to explore the value of diversity and inclusion among our own team at Achieve, as well as for our patients and the community at large. After an initial group discussion, our staff felt particularly comfortable in the break out sessions sharing personal reflections and insights. This helped us to not only better understand each other, but also highlighted the importance of recognizing unconscious bias in everyday living and the need to embrace the diversity and the differences among all of us. We will be continuing our work with People3 and look forward to future training sessions that will allow us to continue this journey to build new skills and enhance awareness.”

“Candace’s “Recognizing and Mitigating Unconscious Bias” workshop was excellent. She is very passionate about the many layers of Diversity & Inclusion, and it comes across in her presentations. The content of the workshop was tailor-made to the demographics of the firm. I fully recommend Candace if you want people to understand diversity through their minds and hearts and want real and lasting change in your organization.”

“We worked with people3 on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion training for our group practice of mental healthcare professionals. Not only was the training tailored to DEI in the mental healthcare industry, the training also offered grounded practices for our clinicians and staff to begin engaging in their everyday lives. Our staff walked away from the training feeling empowered to more intentionally practice DEI in their work, as well as eager to learn more from people3 in the future.”

“Candace put together a customized set of trainings for my team, a group of writers and editors, to help us understand ways in which we can address diversity and inclusion issues in our manuscripts. Everyone arrived with varying levels of understanding of inequality issues, but we walked away feeling even more aware of them and armed with helpful strategies for how to recognize and correct them should they come across our desks. Candace also kindly provided us with some helpful resources to keep and refer back to down the road when we want to build on our new skills.”
