MEET DR. MEISHA-ANN
I’m an industrial-organizational psychologist, researcher, speaker, and executive who has spent more than two decades trying to understand two deceptively simple questions: What helps people thrive at work? And how does helping people thrive help businesses thrive, too?
Throughout my career, I’ve focused on the human side of work because I believe deeply in the power of humanity—and because the evidence is clear: when people experience greater wellbeing, connection, and engagement at work, organizations benefit too. My work sits at the intersection of rigorous research and real life, translating evidence into insights and ideas that leaders can actually use to build more human—and higher-performing—workplaces.
But my story didn’t begin in a research lab or a boardroom. I grew up in Portmore, Jamaica, with an enduring curiosity about people and a strong belief in fairness that has shaped both my life and my career. I’m endlessly fascinated by why people do what they do, how the systems around us shape our experiences, and what becomes possible when people feel truly seen, valued, and able to thrive.
Today, whether I’m conducting research, advising leaders, or speaking on a stage, my goal is the same: to use science, stories, and a little bit (OK, a lot) of my signature sass and vulnerability to help create a better experience of work—and perhaps a better experience of being human.
Working with me, you can expect humanity to stay at the forefront. You can expect real talk and genuine connection. You can also expect evidence, rigor, and a relentless focus on making a difference.
Let’s talk.
