About People Strategies Hawai'i

Kuʻulani Keohokalole (she/her/ʻo ia) established People Strategies Hawaiʻi in 2019 with the vision of growing the capacity of organizations to foster community-minded and people-oriented leaders. She trains, consults, and supports organizations across sectors and industries who are looking to transform around the ways they engage people to achieve their mission.

She is a sought-after speaker on topics of organizational culture and leadership, diversity, equity and inclusion, and Hawaiian values, speaking for Amazon, 3M, Microsoft, Hawaiʻi Business Magazine, CivilBeat, the YWCA, and others. Kuʻulani holds a B.A. in Ethnic Studies and Women’s Studies from UH Mānoa, an M.A. in Education Leadership, Politics and Advocacy from New York University, and an Executive Certificate in Organizational Consulting & Change Leadership from Georgetown University.
