A recognized diversity coach and licensed Social Worker, Bijay is a dynamic workshop leader, presenter and instructor who has successfully and consistently delivered results. Her clients have varied from individual clients and small businesses to high profile media companies who have found themselves at the center of public controversy due to a lack of understanding of diversity and cross- cultural communication. Bijay has an engaging and honest presentation style, which audiences connect with. She is an exceptionally good communicator who stimulates response and knows how to stretch students and go beyond the choices of text and approach. Bijay has designed, delivered and evaluated a broad range of cutting edge diversity programs, in addition to coaching top executives trying to navigate through complex challenges in the vast arena of diversity and inclusion. More recently she has worked with senior managers in assessments centers measuring a range of core management competencies within Social Care Practice.
