Looking at the perspective of the top Black CIOs in the private sector we can learn a lot about Black Leadership as a whole. Finding success is about leveraging expertise and overcoming challenges to stand out as a leader. That being said, it's networks and mentors that give developing talent the tools they need to find leadership opportunities. #Leadership #BlackLeadership #ExecutiveLeadership #Csuite

I’ve been reflecting lately and realized that I’ve always been apart of top five winning organizations in their industries and have been able to inspire change and innovate processes in many of these organizations I’ve been apart of. From being able to train top District General Managers to be successful, to promoting and helping the enterprise attain enterprise growth strategies beyond the level of growth expected nationally and internationally, and train and developing top talent to not only grow in each of those companies but to flourish in the careers in other roles as well. Sometimes you have to reflect and thank yourself for the accomplishments you have achieved and keep note of them. A previous leader of mine said; you’ve accomplished so many things however sometimes you need to slow down and keep record of those accomplishments to be able to speak more about all of the great things you’ve done in your tenure to show how much impact you’ve made. I guess the advice I would have for future leaders is to always keep track of the amazing things you’ve done and to celebrate them. No one knows how much sleepless nights, strategies, and passion went into what you done to help grow your industries and how that impact affects so many people.

Blessed to have finished my first week as a 2024 National African American Women’s Leadership Institute(NAAWLI) Fellow. The following are few of my learnings. There were so many. 1. It is vital to your growth to take time to invest in yourself from a self care perspective. This impacts how you show up in all the roles you play and contributes to you being the best version of yourself. 2. As you set goals ensure they align with your values. Make sure you identify values important to you. 3. Conquer your fears. We are often triggered by mistakes, past traumas and what others have said about us. We have to address these issues and release them to support our emotional wholeness. This is not easy but it is necessary in moving forward. You are worth it! 4. Avoid mobile devices the first 20 minutes of your day. Take time to pray/meditate, recite affirmations and reflect on what you are grateful for. This helps start your day on a positive note and the energy you project.

?? How do you build a legacy that lands you in the Hall of Fame? Pull up a (virtual) chair as I explore this with the legendary Jerri DeVard, one of the latest inductees into the American Advertising Hall of Fame. Who better to unpack the blueprint of a storied career than someone who's just received this prestigious honor? Jerri's journey left me with profound insights, but one golden nugget stood out: the power of "lifting as we climb." It's about contributing value and support to others consistently — that's the hallmark of true greatness and a Hall of Fame mindset. ?? What does 'lifting as we climb' mean to you in your career? Have you experienced this? Let's build on Jerri’s approach and share our stories of growth and mentorship in the comments. ?? ??

?? Exciting Learning Opportunity Alert! ?? I recently attended an incredibly engaging and educational masterclass hosted by Black Women in Executive Leadership (B-WEL)/ Dr. Wanjiru Kamau-Rutenberg which focused on the power of sponsorship in executive leadership, particularly for women. It was an eye-opener on how fortified support networks can significantly impact career growth and advancement. Despite many organizational efforts to nurture women's talent, there still exists a disparity in the promotion and appointment of high-potential women to senior roles. This masterclass provided valuable insights into overcoming these challenges through strategic relationships and sponsorship programs. Key takeaways included: ?? Building and leveraging strategic relationships ?? The power of clear communication ?? Adding value consistently ?? Transforming sponsorship into a mutually beneficial partnership This masterclass emphasized that sponsorship is more than just a transaction; it’s about creating dynamic alliances that propel careers forward. If you're interested in learning more about how sponsorship can be a game-changer in your career, feel free to reach out to Michelle Awuku-Tatum.

One of the more bittersweet sentiments captured by Ovetta Sampson of what so many of us black design leaders have been feeling and experiencing. It’s not just about leaving. You can’t help but think of those still there, still enduring. I have such mixed opinions and feelings on this, especially as someone who spends a great deal of time mentoring young designers. I do believe we have a responsibility to show the realities (good and bad) of what it means to work and grow in this industry. However, I think more importantly we need to be examples of what else design can do and offer beyond the traditional avenues, because there is in fact so much more. Many of us are still here, myself included. Instead, we chose to pivot and explore the peripherals of what else design could be. Building new disciplines, communities, and career paths to show other possibilities can exist. Especially ones that can be more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable ???? #black #design #leader #future #careerdevelopment
