Teniqua Broughton founded VerveSimone Consulting, an organization focusing on “advancing age and race diversification” throughout corporate America, especially nonprofit governance. She recently began working at The Governor’s Office of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) in Arizona to help foster her vision for diversification and inclusion there. To do so, she curated seven statewide leadership development groups, from Valley Leadership to Arizona Center for Rural Leadership, committing to developing a shared curriculum on racial justice. She’s also worked hard to make changes in equitable grant-making practices as the commissioner chair of the City of Phoenix Arts and Culture Commission.
