#FlavorsOfPeople
I blend the ingredients of
FOOD: Idenities, Traditions, Experiences, Connections. Values
CULTURE: Belonging, Engagement, Participation, Community, Teamwork
to get a "Delicious Meal" of
INCLUSION: Understanding, Trust, Retention, Productivity and Financial Rewards
Enhance Your Mind, Enrich Your Soul
Who needs cultural transformational learning?
Everyone.
IS YOUR INCLUSION STRATEGY BLAND AND UNAPPEALING?
If your organization struggles with inclusion, you leave money on the table from buys outside of your homogenous groupings. If you are having difficulty attracting and retaining top talent, your inclusion strategy lacks appeal. Organizations with a poor inclusion strategy are at a disadvantage when recruiting and retaining the most qualified employees. If you are not inclusive, you most likely have high turnover and retention rates, because employees who are not included are less engaged, and more likely to leave their jobs. This is costly and disruptive for your organization.

Who I am
Kevin Walters here, the "Diversity Chef" – your secret sauce for transforming workplaces into inclusive, vibrant organizations.
My Focus: "Build Inclusive Cultures with Purpose"
Twenty years of expertise?
No, think flavor-infused wisdom. I empower organizational change with the magic of international food, culinary experiences, and workshops that spice up your culture.
Forget passports; I met my global connections with a single bite.
Food is our universal language, connection shared history, and the secret ingredient to Inclusion and belonging.
My mission? As a Jamaican cuisine enthusiast, I help organizations cultivate a workplace where every dish feels like a celebration, where differences are the tasty variety that boosts productivity and engagement.
Inclusion is the secret ingredient; variety is the spice of life. Just like a world without food, a workplace without inclusion is bland. Let's turn up the flavor together.
That is how "The Diversity Chef" was born – a culinary fusion of passion, creativity, and results.
Ready to add some flavor to your organization? Let's chat.
Inclusive Recipes are more than just recipes.
They're a roadmap for creating a more inclusive and equitable workplace.
I'll teach you how to use the power of food to bring people together and create
a more welcoming environment for everyone.

Human Resources Director, New York
“Loved your talk, Kevin!"
Sr. Recruiter, California
“4 months gone, but one training changed everything. Thank you, Kevin, for the DEIB magic (and for normalizing ND!). You rekindled my courage to embrace my autism and gave us all a future I can't wait to share. Yes to more!.”
Sr. Product Manager
"I just wanted you to know I have heard people discuss Diversity since 2003. In almost every case, the speaker is so focused on hammering the message home, that I would walk away with more questions than answers. You bring a certain calm and credibility to the subject that I haven’t seen before. I wish more people had you pragmatic views on the subject. Thanks," (CEO)
"LOVED your presentation from SourceCon. I got chills a couple times! Thanks so much for the additional tools and new approaches." Head of Talent Acquisiton
