My name is Ali Ingersoll and I inspire audiences to embrace adversity and turn it into their super power.
Trusted Disability & Inclusion Strategist
For 10 years Ali has been consulting with corporations, organizations, and non-profits around the world with the singular strategic mission to advance inclusion in the workplace and in society.
Wellness and Belonging: Reducing Workplace Burnout
In today's fast-paced work environment, employee wellness and a sense of belonging are critical to reducing burnout. I offer specialized consulting services focused on creating healthier workplaces where employees feel connected and valued.
By implementing tailored strategies and wellness programs, I help organizations cultivate a supportive culture that prioritizes mental health and well-being.
My approach not only enhances employee satisfaction and retention but also boosts productivity and overall organizational success. Let’s work together to build a workplace where everyone thrives.
Coaching Employee Resource Groups: Embracing Differences for Boundless Opportunities
Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) play a crucial role in fostering inclusion of all employees of all employees within organizations. I provide coaching and guidance to ERGs, helping them develop effective strategies and initiatives that promote a culture of belonging.
By embracing and celebrating differences, companies can unlock boundless opportunities for innovation and growth.
My consulting services focus on empowering ERGs to become change agents within their organizations, driving initiatives that create inclusive environments where every voice is heard and valued.
Enhancing Disability Inclusion
Disability inclusion is not just a moral imperative but also a business advantage. I consult with organizations to improve disability inclusion, which in turn boosts employee morale and enhances profitability.
I include training on accessibility, creating inclusive policies, and promoting a culture that values every individual's contributions.
People with disabilities are some of the most creative problem solvers and are getting left behind in the employment market today. By improving disability inclusion, organizations can tap into a wider talent pool and foster a more innovative and engaged workforce.
Strategic Solutions for Health Equity Advancement
I have partnered with numerous organizations to promote self-advocacy within the health equity sector. Despite the strides made, the U.S. health insurance industry still has significant progress to make in prioritizing equity over quality for individuals with complex medical needs.
While we continue to push for systemic change, it's crucial to operate within the current system to support end-users of various healthcare products, particularly in securing necessary health insurance approvals.
I have developed a strategic framework that empowers organizations to help their consumers advocate for themselves, enhancing individuals' quality of life and increasing business profitability.
