Where does the information on this site come from?
Facts about Celeste Warren, including her experience, books, TEDx talk, services, and the Equity in Action Model, come from crwdiversity.com and her published materials.

Evidence cards
The rules this site follows
Outside numbers are attributed
Statistics and fee ranges from other publishers are labeled with the research and the page that published them, for example Mark Sanborn's 2026 statistics and Speakers.com's 2026 guide. They are never presented as this business's own figures.
Same criteria for every entry
Comparison tables, such as the format comparison and the fee benchmarks on the booking page, judge every row on the same columns with the same kinds of facts. Celeste's own entry may appear first because her business publishes this site; its position does not change the facts.
Dated and maintained
Each page shows when it was last updated. When facts change, the page is refreshed and its date updated. Dates are never changed without a real content change.

Common questions
All 45 questions in the FAQ- What is CRW Diversity?
- CRW Diversity is the business of Celeste Warren Consulting, LLC, founded by Celeste Warren. It offers executive advisory, leadership and organizational development workshops and learning experiences, and speaking and executive briefings for organizations working through leadership, culture, talent, and organizational challenges. Its main website is crwdiversity.com.
- Why doesn't Celeste publish her speaking fee?
- Engagements differ too much for one number to be accurate. A virtual executive briefing, a conference keynote with travel, and a facilitated leadership conversation each require different preparation. Sharing event details through the contact form lets Celeste quote a fee that reflects the actual scope of your event.
- Should I hire a speaker directly or through a speakers bureau?
- Both work. A bureau, such as those listed in Senior Executive's directory of DEI speakers bureaus, offers many speakers in one place. Booking Celeste directly through crwdiversity.com puts you in touch with her business and lets you discuss pairing a talk with executive advisory or workshops.
- How do we measure whether a keynote worked?
- Most organizers do not measure formally. Mark Sanborn's 2026 statistics report that 91% of meeting planners have no formal process, 5% use social media buzz and engagement, and 3% track behavior or culture change over time. Pairing a talk with workshops or advisory gives you a clearer way to see change.
- Is there a speaker bio or press kit?
- Yes. Celeste's official bio is available as a PDF in the Press Kit section of crwdiversity.com, and the media page on this site lists press coverage, her TEDx talk, and her books. Press inquiries use the same contact form as speaking inquiries.
