Partners for Positive Impact
Advancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Organizations
Research has shown that nothing impacts an organization’s diversity, inclusion and culture more than meaningful progress at the leadership levels of an organization, including:
- Hiring, transition, and retention of diverse executive leadership
- Diversifying and developing Boards
- Engaging and retooling leadership teams for high-impact execution of equity and inclusion initiatives
Wahl & Associates, LLC, partners with mission-led organizations to bring about critical changes and meaningful progress at their leadership levels, including executive selection, employment marketing and communications, board development, and other key initiatives furthering diversity, equity, and inclusion.

inclusion & equity,
integrity & transparency,
collaboration & respect,
within our firm and across all of our partner and community interactions.
We meet our partners where they are
