In this episode of Founders Future, with host Jae Encarnacion, we're joined by Dr. Tana M. Session, an HR and DEIB pioneer who transformed her 30-year corporate career into a thriving consultancy. Tana shares her bold leap from executive roles to entrepreneurship, revealing how she built a business serving 200+ clients while completing law school. She discusses the shifting tides of DEIB work, her psychology-backed approach to cultural transformation, and why she's betting on Gen Z to reignite corporate commitments to inclusion.

Tana pulls back the curtain on her consulting playbook - from executive coaching to outsourced HR services - and how she's adapting to industry headwinds. She offers golden advice for fellow founders on resilience ("Rejection is just 'not yet'"), the power of small but mighty teams, and her surprising embrace of AI tools like ChatGPT. With law school graduation approaching, Tana also teases her vision for "Tana 3.0" - blending legal expertise with her HR legacy to create even greater impact. It's a masterclass in reinvention from a leader who continues to evolve while staying true to her mission.
