Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.

My name is Rita Kakati-Shah and I am the founder of Uma, an international company I started almost 3.5 years ago to empower women and minorities looking to re-join, integrate and progress in the workforce.

Our mission is twofold. We invite individuals to join our community where we provide curated programs to overcome self-doubt, build up confidence and brush up on skills. For companies, our array of services is centered around diversity, equity, and inclusion principles and includes corporate strategy, mentoring and coaching, building return to work programs and leadership development and training.

Over the last few years, we have grown our presence to include various cities around the world, have successfully helped thousands of women and minorities gain confidence and preparation for the workforce, and have conducted hundreds of keynote talks, taught training workshops and given strategic advice to Fortune 500 companies, policymakers, and academia.
