Inspirational Highlights

“Since African American/Black women navigate a tricky maze of both racial and gender challenges, it’s crucial to delve into how their distinct journeys shape them into powerhouse leaders. While many experts talk about the link between leadership styles and women in charge, few shine a spotlight on those remarkable African American/Black women who have barreled through barriers, conquered leadership mountains, and paved the way for others.”

A Spotlight on Success

“What I have appreciated and what has come back to me is having had the opportunity to work with people that have been able to advance their career as a result of me helping or supporting them in some type of way. Or being able to see a program or an initiative grow within an organization and how it’s touched and impacted people in a very positive way. If I say anything about what I’ve done and what my career has been, I am prayerful that I have impacted at least one person.”
