Founder & CEO

Gestão Kairós

Liliane Rocha has been through the struggle of being a Black woman. She faced situations of prejudice in society and in the corporate world and for years, she could see from the inside of companies, as a LATAM Executive, what worked and what didn’t when it came to the topic of Diversity. She has had 15 years of performing in fields such as Sustainability and Diversity in Multinational Companies. Currently, she’s the CEO of Gestão Kairós, a company that has become a reference at supporting large companies by implementing successful strategies of Diversity.

Nowadays, she holds a Master of Public Policy Management Degree, an MBA in Sustainability, and teaches at the post-graduation Sustainability course at University of São Paulo (USP). Liliane published the book “How to be an inclusive Leader” that has been bought and distributed to the leaders of large companies.

She has created new concepts - like "Diversitywashing" - a term created by her, used to identify practices of organizations that hijack themes related to Diversity and Inclusion just to obtain marketing status, without doing concrete actions for inclusion.
