In Their Own Words
Two-Minute Testimonials from our Members
“I’ve had other people in the industry call me to ask about our DFA membership and see if it’s for them. And I’m always shouting from the rooftops that it’s been a tremendous benefit for our firm, and I recommend it to everybody.”
“The networking is amazing. It’s great to be able to connect with other practitioners to strategize, to ideate and to brainstorm. All of us are trying to solve for the same problem. So why do it in a vacuum and try to do it alone? Let’s come together. Let’s have very honest conversations about the issues. And then let’s try to come up with the best solutions together, because we’re better together.”
“Having an opportunity to pick up the phone and call someone and talk through issues has just been transformative in my career. It’s a great accountability network having a relationship with Manar and people in the organization. It’s not just an organization that gives you information but she’s quick to tell me what I’m not doing right. And helping me see some blind spots and talking through it and then adjusting it accordingly.”
“The Diversity and Flexibility Alliance was incredibly important to us at a really pivotal time, as we were making our way out of the pandemic and thinking about what our hybrid policy would be, what our approach would be to hybrid work for our whole organization. Manar had been thinking about these topics and had really focused on flexibility from a scheduling perspective for a lot of time and had so many insights.”
“Manar and her team are leaders in this space, there’s no doubt about it. When we speak with them, one of the things that I think is most beneficial is that because they speak with so many people, and they see such a wide view of organizations, it allows us to see the forest through the trees…we understand what’s happening more broadly, we can get out of our own silos, we can step outside of our own organizations to see what’s happening in the industry.”
