“We can’t transform workplaces without transforming how we how we think.”

Isis Fabian is a Fellow at Coqual’s Global Lab for Better Work Futures, where they bring deep expertise in identity, intersectionality, and inclusive culture with a focus on neurodiversity and divergent thinking. A neurodivergent educator, researcher, and certified coach (ICF), Isis is known for translating complexity into insight—helping individuals and institutions navigate identity, power, and culture with clarity and compassion.

Over the past decade, Isis has led and contributed to nationally representative, mixed-methods research across the U.S. and global markets including Canada, Mexico, Brazil, the UK, Germany, Poland, India, Hong Kong, and Japan. Their work has explored a wide range of equity-focused issues: from implicit bias, microaggressions, and intergenerational dynamics to mentorship, sponsorship, and the lived experiences of Black, Latine, LGBTQIA+, disabled, and neurodivergent professionals.

As a facilitator and coach, Isis builds spaces where people can reflect honestly, listen deeply, and move forward with purpose. Their work is animated by a belief in nuance, liberation, and collective abundance—and an insistence on thinking beyond traditional approaches to inclusion, imagining cultures that expand to embrace the fullness every person brings to the table instead of simply allowing them entry.

Isis identifies as agender and neurodivergent, traits which heavily inform their perspective and approach to their work.
