About Danielle D.

Dr. Danielle Davis is a servant leader and diversity management strategist. As president and CEO of Davis Consulting Solutions her and her team serves as your trusted partner for diverse business and workforce solutions.She is also known as MsDavisofPgh, one who offers a business day interpretation of the Chinese proverb: “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” Jessica Driscoll (2015) wrote, “Danielle chose this [type of business] because many of her clients are unaware of the resources available to them. ‘A lot of programs and individuals will tell you what to do, but they don’t teach you how to do it and let it become part of your natural behavior,’. ‘I see such a gap in people not knowing where to go that it drives me to make sure people have what they need.’ This is the heart of Davis Consulting Solutions—providing clients with the resources and training so that they can advance their future.” Dr. Davis brings over 15 years of administration experience and more than 10 years of business and human service knowledge to her role as consultant, educator, trainer and entrepreneur. In addition to the \"Entrepreneur Development Model\" she designed and accompanying curriculum, her experience with small businesses is extensive as she has worked with over 200 individuals and 70 businesses in start-up, growth, or expansions. She specializes in government and diversity initiatives, leadership, workforce development and entrepreneur education. Danielle holds a Ph.D. in Community Engagement from Point Park University. With a Masters in Organizational Leadership from Geneva College and a Bachelor’s degree in Community Ministry, she is focused on strengthening the community and economic development opportunities. She has in-depth knowledge in creating programs and projects to benefit nonprofit and for-profit establishments. Her other skills includes: program creation, project management, accounting, marketing, media, and community involvement. Davis looks forward to building a culture of enthusiastic leaders who will, financially, rejuvenate “OUR\" communities.
