About Mariat Jibril

Chief Happiness Officer: MIJ Consulting

I am a leadership, DEIB, and workplace wellness expert dedicated to helping organizations rethink how leadership should work and feel for employees and the organization as a whole.

My work is grounded in a simple truth:

People perform better when they feel psychologically safe, valued, and supported without lowering standards.

My Philosophy

I believe leadership is not only about strategy and results. It is about how people experience work every day.

I bring together:

DEIB principles rooted in dignity and equity
Mental wellness and trauma-informed leadership practices
Psychological safety as a foundation for trust and innovation
Systems thinking that supports sustainable change

This approach allows leaders to move beyond surface-level initiatives toward cultures that genuinely support both people and performance.

Professional Background

I bring executive-level experience, lived insight, and years of leadership across corporate, nonprofit, and public-facing spaces.

I am the Founder of Better Not Bitter Society, a nationally recognized organization advancing equity, healing, and leadership development. That work continues independently and deeply informs my consulting practice offering organizations real-world insight into resilience, systems change, and people-centred leadership.

I am known for facilitating conversations that are honest, courageous, and deeply human while remaining practical, strategic, and outcomes-focused.

Why Organizations Work With Me

Organizations work with me because I:

Create psychologically safe spaces without avoiding hard truths
Bridge empathy with accountability
Understand leadership pressure at every level
Translate complex human dynamics into actionable strategies
