Course Description

Join us for a conversation with Julie Turney, Founder and CEO at HRatHeart Consulting, Inc. Julie Turney is an HR Professional with over 15 years of experience in human resources. Neurodiversity is a little understood dimension of diversity. It is about recognizing that cognitive differences are not impairments or deficits and understanding how the different ways our brains are wired. Neurodiverse people are born with brains that think, perceive and process information differently. While some differences can be challenging, others can boost abilities and bring specialized skills and abilities to the workplace. Julie will be joining us to share her experiences navigating her career as a neurodiverse employee, to help us raise awareness of working with neurodiverse talent. We hope you join the conversation!

Learning Objectives:


  • Identify awareness of the benefits of neurodiversity in the workplace

  • Determine tactics for including hiring more neurodiverse employees

  • Define strategies to support and assist companies in working with neurodiverse talent

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. Although in a variety of roles and industries, their work has always intersected around the importance of self-awareness in leadership, clarity of purpose, and navigating conflict within teams.

They work with businesses and firms to infuse diversity, equity, and inclusion across all aspects of people experience, operations, policy, communications, branding, and community & social responsibility. Their training programs and workshops are designed to bridge the gap between diversity and inclusion by offering concrete skills and communication strategies teams and use to build teams capable of leveraging their full diversity to drive innovation, growth, and lasting cultural change. They also offer support in developing, implementing, executing, and reporting on D&I strategy.
