Unlocking Team Potential Through a Culture-Driven Approach
Muni means "to think," in Tagalog, my mother’s native Filipino language. Often expressed as muni-muni, it refers to an act of thoughtfully considering and gaining insight.
At Muni Muni Partners, we believe that evolving your organizational culture starts with a thoughtful, strategic approach. With over a decade of curiosity, research, and experience, I offer fresh perspectives to help your team thrive within a culture that genuinely supports them.
Expertise That Drives Results
I help HR leaders and executive teams tackle their toughest workplace culture challenges, from navigating bias and leadership development to driving sustainable, inclusive change.
Deep Intercultural Competence
Support Leadership development and strengthen cultural competence using data-backed insights from the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI). This leads to reduced bias, stronger team collaboration, and greater success and retention of diverse talent.
Academic Rigor, Practical Solutions
Strategies are informed by psychology and Diversity Leadership expertise, shaped by my graduate studies and leadership in emerging workplace research. This approach increases engagement, strengthens retention, and drives leadership accountability, creating measurable change beyond compliance.
Facilitation That Moves Teams Forward
Teams are guided through workshops and leadership sessions designed to navigate challenges, foster alignment, and support momentum toward meaningful, lasting change.
Human-Centered, Future-Ready Approach
Leaders work alongside me to redesign systems for leadership development, organizational structure, and team collaboration. This improves decision-making, strengthens retention and engagement, and builds the adaptability teams need to thrive in an evolving workplace.
Featured Services
Bias in Action Package
From awareness to accountability.
This package builds on the foundation of the bias training many organizations offer. Whether your team is early in this work or layering it into existing trainings or compliance measures, this package supports long-term bias recognition development by focusing on everyday habits and leadership practice.
This package includes:
A core session for all staff focused on identity, perception, and common patterns in workplace behavior
A leadership session exploring how bias affects decision-making, advancement, and team culture
Optional tools and services to support reflection, follow-up conversations, and practical application
Why this approach works:
Bias becomes routine when no one names it. Many people recognize, but few feel equipped to address it.
One-time trainings fall short. Change takes repetition, reflection, and a clear path forward.
Most people want to do better. They just need structure and space to grow their awareness and impact.
Leadership behavior sets the tone. When leaders build accountability into their actions, it shifts how others show up.
Follow-Through Framework Workshop
Making decisions with people, not just about them.
Many leadership teams want to make thoughtful, values-aligned decisions but often fall into patterns that unknowingly leave others out. This workshop is built around Muni Muni Partners’ original decision-making framework and offers a clear, repeatable process that helps teams make better choices with more transparency, input, and trust.
Participants will learn how to:
Recognize where power shows up in decision-making
Invite meaningful contributions throughout the process
Align choices with the organization’s values
Build trust through clear communication and follow-through
Best for executive teams, people managers, DEI Council or ERG leaders, and anyone shaping how decisions are made and received across an organization.
Why this approach works:
Decision-making shapes culture. How choices are made communicates what the organization truly values. This framework help leaders align process with purpose.
Power dynamics often go unspoken. When leaders are intentional about who is involved and how, it builds trust and clarity across teams.
People support what they help shape. Including the right voices early leads to decisions and fewer breakdowns later.
Accountability builds credibility. Consistently following through on commitments earns trust and drives lasting behavior change.
