She also serves as President of Eunity Delaware, Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to advancing unity, belonging, and cultural connection across the First State. With 27 years of healthcare experience, Dr. G has a proven record of building inclusive cultures that strengthen well-being, trust, and retention.A dynamic keynote speaker, facilitator, and community convener, Dr. G has led trainings, conferences, and leadership workshops across healthcare, education, business, and community settings, translating evidence-based insight into practical, action-oriented strategies. Her work is rooted in bridging sectors, empowering leaders, and turning belonging into measurable outcomes and lasting impact. As host of the Inclusive Cultural Leadership Summit, Dr. G brings both professional expertise and a deep commitment to building stronger, more connected communities across Delaware.Panel 1 (45 minutes)Beyond Burnout: Retention, Well-Being, and the Cultures That Make People StayBurnout is no longer confined to a single profession—it has become a cross-sector challenge affecting healthcare teams, educators, business professionals, and leaders across community and faith organizations. Recent national data highlight the scope of the issue: 52% of employees report feeling burned out at work, 45.2% of physicians reported at least one symptom of burnout in 2023, and nearly 60% of teachers say they feel burned out. Nonprofit leaders are feeling the strain as well, with one national study finding that 95% expressed concern about staff burnout.This panel brings leaders from multiple sectors into one conversation to explore what is driving burnout, what meaningful retention truly requires, and how inclusive leadership practices—such as psychological safety, respect, workload clarity, and supportive accountability—can create cultures where people feel valued, supported, and motivated to stay.Attendees will gain practical insight into how organizations can move beyond simply managing burnout to building workplace cultures that sustain well-being, strengthen trust, and improve retention.Panel 2: Spotlight Panel (45 minutes)Maternal Health Equity: Protecting Black Mothers and Advancing Respectful CareMaternal health disparities remain urgent and unacceptable. According to the CDC, the maternal mortality rate for Black women in 2023 was 50.3 deaths per 100,000 live births, compared with 14.5 for White women—more than three times higher. National data continue to show that Black women are about three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes, underscoring the need for sustained attention and coordinated solutions.This spotlight panel highlights evidence-based strategies to improve maternal health outcomes, including respectful maternity care, bias interruption in clinical settings, continuity and coordination of care, expanded postpartum support, and stronger community partnerships—such as doulas and wraparound services.While maternal health disparities are often discussed as a healthcare issue, they are also a community and systems leadership issue. This conversation invites cross-sector collaboration among healthcare providers, policymakers, educators, and community leaders to protect mothers, strengthen families, and advance equitable care across Delaware.Panel 3 (45 minutes)Trust and Access: Equity, Belonging, and Closing Gaps Across SystemsTrust is the bridge between services and outcomes—whether in schools, healthcare systems, workplaces, or community organizations. When trust breaks down, access suffers and outcomes decline.Recent data signal growing disconnection. Gallup reports that only 37% of U.S. employees strongly agree they are treated with respect at work—one of the lowest levels recorded. Trust gaps also appear in service access and experiences. A 2023 Kaiser Family Foundation report found that Black adults and individuals who have experienced discrimination are less likely to trust healthcare providers, highlighting that equity must address not only access to services but also how people are treated when they receive them.This cross-sector panel brings together leaders from education, healthcare, business, and community organizations to explore how trust can be rebuilt through inclusive leadership. Panelists will discuss practical approaches to reducing barriers, strengthening belonging, improving service experiences, and building partnerships that make support easier to find—and easier to use.
