Kamilah’s mission is to disrupt the systems which keep people separate from themselves and others. Her favorite system to disrupt is the workplace, and her tool of choice is social intelligence. If you want to build authenticity, connection, and happiness in yourself and across your teams with more than a little dash of humor, Kamilah’s got you covered.
