Building Bridges, Fostering Belonging: A Message from Suman, Founder & Principal

From a bicultural upbringing to a passion for inclusive workplaces.

Growing up, I navigated the space between two cultures, a daughter of immigrants constantly finding ways to connect. While differences can sometimes feel isolating, for me, they became bridges. Witnessing the benefits of these connections firsthand sparked a lifelong dedication to building inclusive communities.

Empowering Leaders, Cultivating Diverse Teams.

As a Leadership Development and Organizational Culture Consultant, I specialize in conflict management and cultural improvement initiatives centered on equity, inclusion and belonging. My approach is deeply personal, grounded in self-care, compassion, collaboration, and awareness – all pillars for an equitable world.

Lived Experiences Shape Our Journey.

My own experiences as a South Asian woman informs my work. I understand the impact of lived and intersectional experiences on our commitment to transformation. This fuels my passion for creating robust cultures where everyone feels a sense of belonging.

Deep Expertise, Tailored Solutions.

I hold a Master’s degree in Conflict Analysis and Resolution, along with professional certifications in DE&I, Women in Entrepreneurship, and facilitation programs focused on positive intelligence and building self-belief.

“People often ask me why I created Well Balanced Solutions, why I do the work that I do, why I care about helping adults get along better and why it’s important to me that people feel safe to be themselves. It’s simple. I do this work with the goal of reducing toxicity in the workplace so my children have an inclusive, positive work experience.”

Together, let’s build a more inclusive future.
