Testimonials

“As someone who usually expects to not learn anything new from a diversity training, I was pleasantly surprised to learn some new tools and frameworks for addressing inclusion and equity both in and outside of the workplace! Tuck gave relatable, real-world examples, tips and tricks to navigate difficult conversations, and engaging prompts so folks could reflect on how privilege, bias, and being a bystander affects everyone in different ways.” — Jené Etheridge, Marmoset Music

“Tuck's basic diversity talk is anything but basic. It is eye-opening and thought provoking even if you've done extensive work in the space. They break down equity vs. equality, privilege and microaggressions in a way that is relatable and uncomfortable, which is what we need to actually make progress. I highly recommend Tuck to any company or organization that believes in creating a place of belonging for everyone.” — Maren Elliott, Swift

“I would 100% recommend hiring Tuck for your next training workshop. They made the session incredibly informative, engaging, and enriching. Several of my colleagues said this was the best training session they have attended at my organization, and I wholeheartedly agree!” — Linda Wang, Chemical & Engineering News

“I noticed a difference in my organization almost immediately as everyone was given the tools to listen and talk about trans topics with greater fluency and sensitivity.  The material sparked a lot of empathetic discussions during the session and beyond. 10/10 hire Sylveon; it's completely worth it and you will learn a lot! — Paula Chew, Postlight
