Reaching the Summit: Forging Your Powerful Legacy as a Woman of Color Leader
You've risen through the ranks, breaking barriers and setting new standards. As a senior woman of color executive, you've achieved what many thought impossible. Yet, you know there's still a higher peak to conquer.
Your sights are set on joining the ranks of those transformative leaders who've become household names, whose decisions shape industries, and whose influence extends far beyond their own companies. It's not just about another title; it's about wielding influence that reshapes industries and leaves an indelible mark on the world and generations to come.
The Challenge: Unspoken Burdens of Leaders at Your Level
If what keeps you up at night includes:
The weight of being the "only" or the "first" in countless situations
The persistent barriers and microaggressions that don't disappear, even if you’re so used to them you don’t even perceive them anymore
The struggle to chart a course when you've long outgrown the traditional career ladder
The active resistance from those threatened by your ascent
The delicate balance between authenticity and the expectations of executive presence
The growing distance between you and your roots – family, friends, community – as you rise higher, leading to a profound sense of isolation
You're not alone. Even though you may find that your continued and increasing success sets you further and further apart from those you hold dear. The isolation can be one of the heaviest burdens of leadership.
