Read MoreVivian is exactly the kind of person that our society needs to make positive change happen – open, honest, true to herself, engaged and engaging. She is true to the belief that open conversations are crucial but only actions can create real progress. If you are serious about making DEI happen at your organisation, I can only recommend that you work with Vivian.
Vivian has a vast knowledge about events and public presence, and what makes it wonderful is that she has a focus on humanizing interactions and communications, which in a year like this becomes not only useful but also necessary for any manager or leader. I can highly recommend Vivian to any company or professional who is looking to step up their game and become more empowered in their online (and offline!) presence.
Vivian delivered the "Amplifying Allyship"-workshop to students and it was a huge success! If you are thinking about the "why" and "how" to incorporate DEI in your corporate or educational structure, make sure to invite your leadership to a conversation with Vivian! She will clarify and support, from a place of knowledge, experience and patience!
Vivian is a force of nature and a natural entertainer! Her unique way to address the topic of DEI and well-being really surfaces how one cannot exist without the other! No one stays indifferent to Pump the Jam and we had a lovely time at @Google Amsterdam with her talk!
Vivian was one of our panellists for the Acrolinx Inclusive Language webinar this year. She is a vibrant, authentic and confident speaker on all things diversity, equity and inclusion.

Vivian is a change-maker and incredible thought leader for all branches of the diversity tree. Her ability to gather brilliant leaders around the world, advocate internationally and advise large, multinational organizations regarding Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is awe-inspiring. Vivian is not afraid to challenge but also inspire others to make the changes necessary to build a culture of wellness within their teams. I highly recommend hiring Vivian as a consultant with immediacy to make lasting changes in your organization.
