Coach Servola Frazier, CEO, the founder of Motivate Enterprises LLC, turned her frustration into fuel for change after being repeatedly overlooked for promotions in her federal government career. Realizing she was undervalued, Servola launched her business to cultivate strong organizational cultures where individuals feel safe, valued, and empowered. "I decided to create a business where people like me could feel safe and valued in their work," says Servola. Her company is dedicated to building learning systems that empower organizations and communities to thrive. Recently, Servola became an Economic Recovery Corps Fellow and secured a 2.5-year contract to help breathe new life into the historic African-American corridor in Fort Lauderdale.

Ernesto Fonseca, PhD Andres Lopez, Ph.D. Maribel De León Reyna Lopez Aldo Medina Martinez Ashley Espinoza Ruby Ramirez, MPP, MSW and others about the work that needs to be done.

Did you know that in 2023, Japan’s Prime Minister Kishida and the Ministry of Economy explicitly included the zebra philosophy in its "Honebuto Plan," the economic growth strategy for the entire country. The concept of centering the wellbeing and prosperity of community alongside business success has always been embedded in Japanese culture, which is why the zebra way has taken root and blossomed so vigorously there.
