Course Description

Known as the Snow Globe Shaker, Jeff Nischwitz is on a mission to help people shift their leadership impact. Working with clients from different groups, he understands how messages can be interpreted differently when coming from people in positions of power (the majority) to people in a target group (often a minority). Through his work, Jeff has observed the natural defensiveness that can exist when we react and come to understand the many ways we can grow as leaders through awareness and by taking responsibility for our impacts (intended and unintended). This ties directly to the challenge of navigating uncomfortable conversations, specifically the importance of speaking from an “I” perspective versus a “you” perspective.

Jeff will be joining us to share both his observations and personal experiences in making this shift. He hopes that by sharing his own journey into understanding his unconscious biases and beliefs and the very subtle ways they show up, he might offer others an invitation to begin to explore the same for themselves. We hope you join the conversation! 

Learning Objectives: 


  • Recognize unconscious bias

  • Describe the importance of self-awareness

  • Identify the leadership responsibility for impacts on others

  • List strategies for navigating uncomfortable conversations

Jina is a consultant and speaker on diversity, inclusion, culture, and belonging. She creates training programs and workshops to help clients move forward in their D&I journey. She is a storyteller and speaks candidly about her experiences, hard lessons, and ‘aha’ moments that helped her understand the importance of individuality, the value of curiosity, and the courage it takes to “just” be yourself. Often described as “approachable” and “relatable” by her clients, she works with purpose and the intention of being engaging, practical, and immediately applicable to real-world situations. Jina draws from her unique background and mix of work experiences to offer examples and share insights designed to benefit everyone across the workplace ecosystem – executives, management, employees, and customers.

Previously, she was Principal Consultant at EtiennePartners (EP), a boutique consulting firm that offered a unique strategy development, workshops & coaching to leaders, executives and entrepreneurs. Co-founded with her husband, EP was a full-time partnership in both work and life. Although in different professions, their work often intersected around the importance of self-awareness in leadership and navigating conflict within teams. Combining their experiences, backgrounds, and work led to the development of their unique approach to D&I, which she continues to use in her practice today.

Etienne Consulting's work is informed by their unique mix of experience in public accounting & business consulting, association management & member engagement, and diversity & inclusion consulting and training.
