Thais is an innovative, authentic, and convincing speaker and trainer. I have worked with her a number of times, engaging with our global ERGs leads in Lisbon, delivering a keynote on inclusive leadership for our global legal team in Moscow and facilitating a smaller interactive workshop on inclusion with our UK leadership team. On all occasions, she did a brilliant job at delivering eye-opening DEI insights and making the topic relevant and practical.

Thais made me discover the power of inclusive leadership in a very concrete way. She brings simplicity to a very complex topic. Since I started applying the principles I learned with her, my team is performing much better. As a team, we’re more engaged, more creative, more responsive to our internal customers.

Thaïs is an exceptional expert on Inclusion and Diversity, she has a profound knowledge of the field and a genuine commitment to fostering inclusive environments.
Her listening skills combined with her ability to ask the right questions make her remarkably reassuring, even when facilitating difficult conversations around I&D. Her expertise shines through as she navigates these discussions with grace and confidence, putting everyone at ease. Whether speaking with executives, HR professionals, or employees on the ground, Thaïs engages with authenticity and respect, ensuring that everyone feels heard and valued.

I've had the privilege of working with Thais's in her role as Head of I&D at Gilead EMEA. I was impressed by her insight and knowledge. She helped me and the organization I was leading to develop a strong inclusive culture. Thais instilled confidence and a sense of empowerment in our teams to drive inclusion.

Thais conducted a workshop on inclusive language with my leadership team, in charge of the communications for more than 30 countries across Europe. Besides the great time and very worthwhile training, she managed to provide my team with a renewed confidence to support and push an inclusive work environment across a variety of cultures and mentalities. 

During my time at Gilead we developed with Thais’s support an innovative program to accelerate gender balance in senior leadership. Thais designed and facilitated a series of interactive and insightful webinars that created powerful connections between female talents and male allies. She’s a very engaging speaker and was able to drive commitment to DEI among a community of leaders from very different backgrounds.

Thais is a fabulous keynote speaker. It’s amazing how she engages huge audiences and delivers powerful messages in a fun way. She’s a great role model and has a unique style: she’s wonderfully feminine and yet makes such a strong and tough impression.

The work that Thais led helped us to completely change our approach to Diversity & Inclusion and really accelerate our results.

Thais is a compelling story-teller with a true passion for inclusive leadership that emanates from everything she does. She’s articulate in delivery, but
also very professional behind the scenes too. A real joy to work with!

Thais's passion and mastery of the Diversity & Inclusion topic provided me with the inspiration to commence my own journey of discovery and also equipped me with the tools to make it sustainable for my team.

I’ve seen Thais in a room with hundreds of people, and we were all learning some of the best equitable culture and inclusive leadership advice. She has great experience, knowledge, is a fantastic speaker, and her stories and lessons are relevant to every person in any audience.

Thais’s delivery and personalisation to our business was superb and engaged the audience. We also appreciated the way you handled some of the more difficult questions. We have received great feedback. We hope to work with her again in the future.

Thais’s passion and enthusiasm for DEI, coupled with her deep knowledge, engaging presentation skills as well as her ability to adapt to the audience needs make her the perfect speaker to take your audience to the next level. In a very compelling and non-threatening way, she captivates the audience and leaves them with tangible tools to promote DEI in everyday life.

With her excellent inter-personnel and multicultural skills, Thais succeeded at influencing business leaders who were not very used to dealing the diversity & inclusion topic.

I had the pleasure of working with Thais for 2+ years while she served as the head of inclusion & diversity for the Gilead EMEA / ACE region. Thais brought significant subject matter expertise to co-create a culture of learning, understanding, and accountability specific to I&D. Her thought-provoking, confident, and empathetic style enabled her to influence the senior-most leaders in the region while also achieving breakthroughs deeper down and across our region which spanned multiple geographies and cultures. Thais’s efforts contributed to several business outcomes given the increased diversity of thought and representation across levels of the organization.

I had the chance to be inspired by Thais when we both worked at Gilead Sciences Inc. Thais showed herself to be a true change agent in the space of DEI, leveraging her skills as a storyteller, motivator and trainer to turn colleagues into more effective allies and, more broadly, to support the organization in its goal to create a more inclusive culture.

I had the pleasure of participating in Thais' D&I introductory course at the beginning of my role as Global Head D&I for Sandoz and could not have wished for a better onboarding and instructor to this wonderful topic. Thais helped us understand the complexities of diversity and barriers as well as opportunities to increase inclusion. I later partnered with Thais to design and implement an innovative approach to inclusive change management, which we implemented with > 300 leaders at Sandoz, thereby significantly increasing our teams’ sense of belonging.

I’ve had the pleasure of hiring Thais Compoint twice to deliver keynote sessions to our global teams. Thais brings an exceptional blend of deep expertise, engaging presentation skills, and genuine empathy to every session she delivers. Feedback has been unanimously positive each time, with people describing her talks as both powerful and practical. We will certainly be inviting her back again in the future.

I am delighted to recommend Thais for her exceptional contributions in the realm of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Thais’s DEI talks and workshops are not only highly engaging and thought-provoking but also deeply inspirational. She possesses a unique ability to connect with her audience with profound expertise and a warm, refreshing style. Thais’s presentations resonate with everyone, fostering a genuine understanding and appreciation for DEI principles. Her passion and dedication make her an inspirational force, empowering others to embrace and champion DEI initiatives in their own lives and communities.

Thais’s approach is energizing and insightful. She is a brilliant speaker who’s great at using stories to illustrate the subject of Inclusive Leadership. The audience left inspired and with concrete tips to make inclusion happen.

During my tenure at Coca-Cola in the Netherlands, I had the privilege of closely collaborating with Thais on our journey towards fostering more inclusive and diverse teams. Thais demonstrated unwavering dedication, offering invaluable knowledge, support, and training throughout our endeavors. Her clear and accessible communication style, coupled with her adeptness in skillfully guiding teams, propelled us to the next level.

Thais possesses a distinctive talent and personality that enable her to communicate essential messages about Diversity and Inclusion in a way that leaves a lasting impression on people.

Thais Compoint possesses exceptional leadership skills in conducting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion training. Her unique approach integrates theoretical concepts with practical application, offering participants the invaluable opportunity to apply their learnings.

Thais Compoint shared valuable and insightful trends and tips on creating an inclusive workplace to the WEC's company members. Two of the five trending topics:  psychological safety and DEI pushback, prompted robust discussion and debate among the leaders as they explored viable strategies for their company. 

Thais is such an engaging and passionate advocate for Inclusion and Diversity, a true interculturalist. Thais works closely with clients and stakeholders to best understand their needs, pain points and opportunities and translate this into tangible and measurable actions. One project Thais created and led was a series of Inclusion in Action webinars for leaders. The webinars were very well received, Thais was able to build relevant content, deliver in a very engaging way and encourage leaders to be accountable, take action and to lean in to build an inclusive culture.
