ABOUT SHAKTI SERVICES

Shakti Diversity and Equity Training services inspire employees and leaders to discover the strength and courage, or "shakti," needed to navigate the sometimes challenging conversations of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Rooted in Cindu’s South Indian language of Malayalam, "shakti" means strength and courage, and symbolizes the essential quality for effective engagement in DEI work. Embracing shakti is a crucial step in co-creating transformative culture change.

Shakti services contribute to fostering a culture of inclusion and belonging in today's diverse and globalized workplace. Our comprehensive services aim to shape an organizational culture that is diverse, inclusive, equitable, anti-racist, and interculturally intelligent.
