Charniece Rollie Selected to Participate in DEI Certificate of Mastery & Capstone Program

Charniece Rollie, Baker Sterchi’s Kansas City Office Administrator, has been chosen to join a DEI Certificate of Mastery & Capstone Program titled "Strategies for Promoting and Fostering a World-Class Culture of Inclusion." A collaboration between the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce (GKCCC) and Authentico, the program spans 16 months and includes an academic curriculum, capstone project, roundtable interaction with thought leaders and individual coaching sessions.

Led by Dr. Andrea Hendricks, Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer at Authentico, and Dr. Shirley Davis, President of SDS Global Enterprises, the program is limited to a cohort of 30 individuals, including DEI Professionals, Human Resource leaders and industry managers and executives enthusiastic about exploring solutions for cultivating inclusive organizational environments that foster cultures of belonging. The inaugural session, held in March, included a kick-off luncheon attended by Baker Sterchi attorney Megan Sterchi Lammert as Rollie’s guest.

In her role as Office Administrator, Rollie oversees the day-to-day operations of the Kansas City office, drawing upon her extensive 25 years of experience in the legal field to enhance administrative efficiency across all facets of her work. Additionally, she actively contributes as a member of the firm’s DEI Committee and serves as the firm’s representative on ALFA International’s DEI Committee. Rollie regularly attends GKCCC diversity-related events, seeking insights to promote inclusivity within the firm and the broader community.
