Dr. Gilo Kwesi Logan currently is an internationally recognized equity and inclusion educator, consultant, author, and speaker. With experience spanning over twenty years and throughout twenty-three countries, Dr. Logan has provided expertly researched and demonstrably effective leadership and equity consultation to multinational corporations, nonprofit organizations, school districts, college campuses, and government agencies.
​
In an increasingly diverse, interconnected, and at times, seemingly polarized society, Dr. Logan helps leaders and teams develop cultural intelligence to achieve their goals of inclusive leadership, recruiting and retaining the best in diverse talent, and cultivating an organizational culture that is equitable and inclusive for the overall growth of their business, employees, and clients they serve. As a restorative justice practitioner, at the heart of his work is the belief that organizations and teams thrive when people can safely step outside their comfort zones, engage in difficult conversations, critically reflect on their lived experience, embrace their authentic voices, repaid harm, and build practical skills and real relationships based on trust.​
A former certified K – 16 educator, Dr. Logan combines his professional specialization in multicultural education with his research expertise in racial identity development and own personal history. Growing up in Evanston, Illinois, he learned of social justice not from watching the news, but from watching his father serve as the first Black police chief of Evanston and go onto serve as a bodyguard to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
