I create workplace cultures where inclusion is more than access—it’s the foundation of belonging for everyone.
— Dr. Dionne Wright Poulton

At Poulton Consulting Group, we transform workplaces into cultures of respect and belonging—where equity and inclusion fuel performance, innovation, and sustainable success.

Dr. Dionne is a trusted authority in helping organizations design and implement strategies that create workplaces defined by respect, inclusion, and accountability. She builds cultures where bullying, harassment, and discrimination are not tolerated, and where diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and access (DEIBA) are not abstract goals, but lived, everyday practices.

Dr Dionne meets people and organizations where they are. Her work uncovers root causes, clarifies pain points, and applies a data-driven, people-centered approach to achieve meaningful, lasting cultural transformation.
