Y-Vonne Hutchinson Biography
Y-Vonne Hutchinson is a former international human rights lawyer, author, and entrepreneur with expertise in workplace inclusion and organizational culture. She is the CEO and founder of ReadySet, a diversity, equity, and inclusion consulting firm that partners with Fortune 500 companies, technology firms, universities, government agencies, political leaders, sports teams, and media organizations to advance representation and foster inclusive work environments. ReadySet has worked with more than 400 organizations, providing strategies and skills to support workplace diversity and organizational alignment.
Before founding ReadySet, Hutchinson practiced as an international labor and human rights lawyer, collaborating with foreign governments, the U.S. Department of State, and the United Nations. She led efforts to protect Nicaraguan sugar cane workers from occupational illnesses. After returning to the United States, she co-founded Project Include, an open-source resource for technology companies seeking to improve workplace inclusion. Hutchinson is a member of the Harvard Law Institute for Global Law and Policy network and is recognized for her work in labor relations and workplace diversity. She holds a Juris Doctor from Harvard Law School.
Hutchinson is the author of the book, "How to Talk to Your Boss About Race: Speaking Up Without Getting Shut Down," which provides practical guidance for addressing racism in the workplace. Her work has appeared in Fast Company and MIT Technology Review. ReadySet contributed to the Television Academy Membership Survey and has supported the Academy’s diversity initiatives, highlighting Hutchinson’s role as a partner to major institutions.
Hutchinson has presented on diversity, inclusion, and labor topics at Harvard Law, MIT Sloan, UC Berkeley, and international conferences. Her TED Talk, "Where DEI Falls Short — and How to Rethink It," delivered at TEDNext, examines the limitations of performative diversity efforts and proposes new approaches to workplace equity that address contemporary challenges such as climate change and political instability.
Hutchinson is also the founder of Superessence, a technology company offering an AI-powered platform for HR professionals and people operations teams to assess company culture efficiently. Superessence leverages ReadySet’s proprietary data and expertise to help business and HR leaders evaluate organizational culture across key dimensions. Throughout her career as a founder, advisor, and speaker, Hutchinson explores the intersection of technology, human judgment, and organizational performance, focusing on effective communication and building workplaces where people and business outcomes align.
