Charisse Fontes
Charisse Fontes is an author, speaker, and trusted advisor to startups, scaleups, and executive teams navigating growth and cultural change. With a background in anthropology and a grounded, human-first approach, she helps companies align leadership, design people systems, and build cultures that actually work.
She’s also the founder of the nonprofit Humanity Power and a certified birth doula — all part of her mission to elevate humanity in every space she enters. Kind. Clear. Rooted. Charisse brings real insight and care to the work of building better workplaces.
“Charisse is a beacon of hope and joy. She is a difference-maker. If you have the opportunity to spend any quality time with her, I recommend you jump at the chance. She understands people, at their root. She understands the purpose of companies. Put these two understandings together, with Charisses's ability to coach at a group and individual level, and you have the opportunity to build and maintain an unparalleled corporate culture. Moreover, if you have the chance to work with her one-on-one, you'll walk away from every exchange with more clarity, energy, purpose, and gratitude.” - Dr. Michael
