Dr. Raven C. Major

I am Dr. Raven C. Major. I am the Founder and owner of The Folding Chair Collective, LLC. Paying home to Shirley Chisholm’s call, “to bring a folding chair”, The Folding Chair Collective partners with decision-makers to create environments where belonging is intentional and every individual is seen as a valued asset, not just labor. We are dedicated to transforming workplaces, campuses, and communities through leadership development, strategic equity auditing, and people-centered culture building.

Our mission is to equip decision-makers,  leaders, organizations, and institutions with the tools to create equitable tables where every person is recognized as an asset, empowered to contribute, and supported to thrive. While envisioning a world where safe, sustainable tables exist everywhere, built through intentional leadership, equity auditing, and human-centered practices, and where everyone has both a seat and a folding chair of their own.
