Thought Leadership through Diversity of Thought. A design thinking approach to D, E & I

September 15, 2022

Addressing Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at a mid-sized NL based law-firm, through a keynote speech and moderatorship. 

Not your standard talk on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. I have had multiple requests in the past to speak about the overly saturated subject of D, E & I. A topic I do not address as a separate keynote often, I do however have an outspoken opinion about the matter. LGGA asked me to moderate their internal strategy day and share my vision on D, E & I through a keynote speech which is influenced heavily by my early career experiences in architecture & design thinking.

A review from the firm’s partners and management team:

“As a sharpener for the mind, Safiyeh has awakened our law firm. During our internal strategy day about Diversity & Inclusion, she acted as keynote speaker and moderator. Since she was also among us the day before, she had already connected on a human level with our team members before the programme started. Safiyeh has a natural gift of challenging your beliefs and convictions based on experience, personal stories and vision of the future. Safiyeh demonstrated the ability to flawlessly detect and identify the full spectrum of opinions within a group context. She uncovered and addressed these sentiments whilst creating a safe space for all participants to share and learn, allowing vulnerability to be shown. All of that is very powerful.”

Als slijpsteen voor de geest heeft Safiyeh ons advocatenkantoor scherp gesteld. Op onze interne dag over o.a. Diversiteit & Inclusie was zij keynote spreker en dagvoorzitter. Omdat zij de avond ervoor ook al onder ons was, had ze verbinding voordat ze begon. Safiyeh heeft een natuurlijke gave om vanuit ervaring, persoonlijke verhalen en toekomstbeeld je aan het denken te zetten. Ook omdat Safiyeh feilloos aanvoelt welke andersluidende gedachten er ook zijn. Door juiste deze podium te geven, toont kwetsbaarheid zijn gezicht. Dat alles is heel krachtig.”
