This story has a happy ending: Samira Manfon was in such a low place that getting out of bed was a struggle. Talking was a struggle. She’d just lost out on a promotion and it crushed her confidence. She almost didn’t apply to our career accelerator. But we’re so glad she did because she blew us away with her courage and insight! I remember thinking, “she’s exactly who we had in mind when we created the program.” The vote was unanimous. Samira was admitted into the program with flying colors. She showed up every week and put her full heart into supporting her peers. And a few months after graduation, she got a promotion. Samira, we’re so proud of your perseverance, leadership, and excellence. Congratulations on your well-deserved promotion! ********* Fix The Broken Rung’s goal is to help one million women of color achieve promotions. Check out our upcoming Promotion Strategy Master Class to learn the step-by-step playbook Samira used to level up. Link in the comments.

As we step into the 2cd week of Women’s History Month, I would like to share the empowering Caroline A. Wanga . If you’re unfamiliar with Caroline, she is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of ESSENCE, the No. 1 media, technology, and commerce company dedicated to Black women and communities- Essence Ventures (Essence Communications Inc. - Afropunk - BeautyCon - Essence Studios. Caroline started her career at Target in supply chain, serving in a variety of transformational leadership roles, including modernizing Supply Chain and Business Intelligence, Digital and Strategy capabilities. Prior to that, she held several non-profit roles. Get to know her, she’s critical in organizational development when it comes to Influence and Cultural Diversification. A little transparency here, although I come across strong and secure- I often struggle with showing up as my authentic self in the workplace. I give 110% to everything that I do and still sometimes feel that is not enough. I don’t know if it’s the over achiever established in younger years when I was in the Gifted Program in elementary school or being the oldest sibling or often just being the only black/brown woman in most of my work environments. Although I have a MBA, over 15yrs of impressive professional experience- I still at times have that feeling of inadequacy. Caroline led this talk when she was VP at Target. She begin by saying “ WHO you are is who YOU are and if you cannot be WHO you are where you are, then you change WHERE you are not WHO you are”. As her talk develops, she unpacks your natural talent and the strategy of coming into the workplace so that your authenticity can coexist and you in return can get what you need out of your career. Really worth the view, take what you need. Hope you know that YOU are enough (speaking to myself as well). The barriers are there for a reason but they don’t defy your purpose. Often we get in our way, learn to mitigate the risks for the reward. Move around to pursue your purpose and step fully into your light. More quotes that stuck with me by Caroline Wanga: “Go into the maximum of what you can do.” “Your agenda is greater than what is in front of you” “If you know what you are born to do, then the limits of what are available don’t become the limits of what are possible to you” #womenempoweringwomen #courageforchange #culturalawareness 💡**all opinions are my own** 💡

“I fundamentally believe that influence has two key dimensions. Number one is that it has to be reciprocal. You have to be open to being influenced as much as you are trying to influence. The second is that you have to know when it’s best to influence directly or empower others to influence and carry the critical messages.” Today we are honored to recognize Allan Golston as a Chief Influencer! Allan Golston serves as the President of the United States Program at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The foundation is committed to enhancing educational opportunities and promoting equitable academic and economic outcomes for all students, with a focus on those from low-income backgrounds and students of color.

In today's episode, he explores his career path from public accounting to philanthropy, the significance of building trusted partnerships, the evolution of leadership styles, and the use of digital platforms like LinkedIn for reciprocal influence.

For Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) efforts to succeed, yield impact and be sustainable, CEOs MUST lead the way. At PATH we are lucky to have our CEO, Nikolaj Gilbert do exactly that. In this article, Nikolaj shares his journey in creating cultural transformation and leveraging DEI to deliver on the ambitious PATH 2025 Strategy. I'm so glad I got to partner with him in this process. As I read his reflections, one statement of candor stood out for me "For our corporate strategy to succeed, it must be enabled by DEI. But when we started this journey, we had more questions than answers. As a CEO, that can be frightening, but with humility and vulnerability, I started to listen and learn." If you are just getting started, want to scale DEI efforts or you'd like your leadership to continue investing in this important work, this article is a MUST read for you--or you can share it with your executive team, as an early Thanksgiving gift. https://lnkd.in/dbATecRQ Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation USAID Humentum InterAction David Verga Amber Kiwan Carol Meja World Economic Forum McKinsey & Company Lori Nishiura Mackenzie #diversityequityinclusion #globalhealth #PATH4UHC #inclusiveculture

We've seen time and again the incredible ripple effects that happen when young people are empowered to lead. From local service projects to global advocacy campaigns, youth are at the forefront of driving positive change in their communities. They bring fresh perspectives, bold ideas, and an unshakeable belief in a better tomorrow. But they can't do it alone. It takes a village of supportive adults, organizations, and institutions to nurture the next generation of changemakers. When we invest in youth leadership through mentorship, skill-building, and meaningful opportunities to serve, everyone benefits. How will you uplift the youth leaders in your life today? Tell us here: https://lnkd.in/esidyDdd - Ryan & Thomas Growney SG’24 #NewServiceAcademy Image description: Against a dark blue background, a white box displays the words "Empowered Youth, Thriving Communities," echoed by receding layers of the same sentence, copied, which fade into transparency at the back of the white box. Behind the white box, the words "Youth Service" are repeated over and over horizontally, in an orange Varsity/Letterman-style font.
