Parfait Bassalé

Artist + Reconciler + Belonging Strategist

"Having walked the path of an outsider, I know that true belonging isn’t just about inclusion—it’s built through intentional commitment. Creating real belonging requires us to acknowledge past wounds and foster connections grounded in courage, curiosity, and compassion. My mission is to inspire people to befriend ‘the other’ and provide the tools to make those connections genuine and lasting."

Who We Support

Have you considered how connection, or the lack of it, might be your solution?

1

State / Federal Agency and Not For Profit Leaders

Let us help you foster a workplace where belonging drives performance.

  • Struggling with a challenging employee?

  • Have you exhausted multiple strategies, but nothing seems to work?

  • Is their performance issue really about skills—or could it be about connection?

  • What if the key to unlocking engagement, accountability, and productivity wasn’t more discipline—but deeper understanding?

Leaders In The
Private Sector

Reduce turnover, strengthen teams, and protect your bottom line.

  • High employee turnover hurting your bottom line?

  • The cost of replacing an employee goes far beyond hiring—it disrupts teams, drains morale, and impacts productivity.

  • How much time and money have you spent trying to fix the problem, only to find yourself back at square one?

  • What if retention wasn’t just about better benefits—but about better connections?

Team Leaders
Across Sectors

Repair relationships, rebuild trust, and restore collaboration.

  • Tension between teams holding your organization back?

  • Are unresolved conflicts between employees or teams creating silos and slowing progress?

  • Is workplace tension leading to disengagement, inefficiency, or even turnover?

  • What if the real issue isn’t just disagreement—but a breakdown in connection?
