About Charisse Wilkins

According to Gallup’s meta-analysis, companies with a highly engaged workforce are 21% more profitable and a minimum of 17% more productive. Simply put, both employee engagement and development have a significant impact on organizational performance, and that is where I can step in and help. I love helping organizations optimize their workforce by ensuring their work culture is set up for success. Whether it is building out learning and development programs, cultivating an inclusive environment for workers (and clients), or helping to manage workforces more effectively, I am ready to get to work!Areas of Specialty include: Learning & Development Programs | Human Capital Management | Diversity, Equality, and InclusionProgram Design & Management | Workforce Planning & Evaluation | Adult Learning TheoryCurriculum Design & Development | Training Facilitation | Coaching & Mentoring
