Even when we do attend those institutions we struggle once we’re in the door of enterprises. This is because of the refusal to do things differently or to simply make space for those who think differently.
Same.. as someone who was clearly hired for tokenism purposes with a job title I have no qualifications for & told no training is available…. It has lead to anxiety, insomnia & depression. I can’t just vote with my feet as I have kids to provide for. I can’t just walk, because even finding a company to interview me was tough despite 2 degrees. Ginny is a God sent as she is instilling confidence in me.
Really great content. I completely agree, been with my organisation for 13 yrs, still doing the same role with many horizontal moves. Will not be promoted despite being a high performer with much experience, skill and on going education.
Dear Ginny, I like your channel so much it has boosted my confidence. Unfortunately as a single mum with kids attending private school I can’t afford your coaching programme. Could you provide us with advices about people stealing and appropriating your work and idea in the workplace. Thanks
Insightful presentation. I appreciate it! Thank you! Sometimes you have to vote with your feet… yes… Target populations need the tools to operate in these spaces.
I think managers hire on the basis of who will be the most compliant. For years, I was confused by why I was hired, but the managers did not feel comfortable with me. I also think as an African American Muslim ☪️ woman, I was seen as not having many options , as well assumed I would be docile. They learned otherwise. This includes Black mangers who were predominantly Christians ✝️.
This is factual and great. Those who do the hiring must be conscious in their self evaluation and self efficacy. This is also deeply rooted in mental health and cross cultural education . That said many are not held accountable and it is not enforced as well in business culture. As they say sometimes the roots must be chopped up and start fresh with what you can salvage. I look at organizations and see who are the decision makers if not represented in them I am aware of their trends.
It’s very much a leadership problem. This is why we shouldn’t carry the burden of being immaculate in our performance. There is enough evidence favoring DEI. Leadership has to value it. If they valued it, our work environments would’ve been booming with diversity a long, long, time ago.
I wonder with Affirmative action being banned and a lot of companies after George Floyd incident are companies truly serious or intentional about DEI and diversity today, especially for AAs
We belong here…show up, demand respect, be the change and lead by example 🙌

Most people are prejudice. They put up a front of being inclusive, but they fear and will avoid anyone they see as different.
Yasss to all of this this needs to spread to senior management all around the world ! 🎉

“Not everybody who’s in a leadership role is a leader.” Speak on it.
This was the video I needed!❤
