Charmaine is globally recognised for her writing and speaking on anti-racism, equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging. Her research and publications challenge the normative assumptions of an industry which is yet to address the ways in which is knowledge production, power structure and ways of being are shaped by coloniality.

As a compassionate disruptor she takes a decolonial approach to envisioning what coaching can became as an emancipatory force in individual, organisational and social life.
