Don't forget to watch our on-demand webinar from last month, when we dug into blazing the path for women in the supply chain industry, and coined the 4 P's to self-advocacy with Bindiya Vakil ↩ #womeninsupplychainforum

Let's make sure our voices are heard…. Take inspiration from Shirley Chisholm, the first Black woman to be elected to the United States Congress. As she once said, "if they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair." Today, we see an unprecedented number of people making their own space in the conversation about diversity, equity and inclusion - including me and other Black women. For women, Blacks and others who have faced discrimination, it's crucial to remember our worth, not what anyone else thinks it is. Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm knew that securing a seat at the table meant using her voice to facilitate change and impact progress. We can all learn from her bravery and be the change we want to see in the world. Don't wait for an invitation, be determined to make an impact, have some courage. Use the power of your words and be heard - not just during Women’s History Month. We need all hands on deck all year long during these challenging times for our nation. If your voice didn't have power, nobody would be trying to silence it. If our history wasn’t important, nobody would be trying to hide it. So, believe in yourself, know that you belong even if you don’t receive an invitation. Bring up a chair for yourself and make a difference for all. At Ponder Diversity Group, this is what we strive to do every single day. Let's continue to empower each other and make a positive impact together.♥️ #shirleychisholm #womenlead #blackwomenleaders #voices #seatatthetable #makeadifference #womenempoweringwomen #politicalleadership #genderequity #racialequity #diversityequityinclusion #diversity #equity #inclusion

When it comes to serving, hiring and retaining women in our industry, what is one thing you wish we’d reframe our thinking about? That’s one question we plan to ask many phenomenal women in our industry on our new monthly live web series ReFrame, powered by the #WomenOfCarson. In our series, we hope to shift our thinking on issues facing the industry while spotlighting the amazing work that women in our industry are doing. What is one thing in the industry you wish we’d reframe our thinking on?

I appreciate that the Carson Group asked this question. And I really hope the Females and Finance Community chimes in below. For example - 1. Can we reframe asking about balance in our lives? There is no such thing as balance - it's a harmony. We all live and work in a different cadence or tune from one another and I'm really tired of the work-life balance crap. 2. Can we reframe our position on flexibility? Some want to work from home. Some want to work from the office. Some want a little of both. In today's work environment combined with the amazing tech that's been developed, can't we find more flexibility? 3. Can we reframe our ads for jobs? Some of these are written from a land far far away and they don't even sound like jobs anyone would really want. When was the last time you ran a posting by a woman in your firm or who you know? Or how about looking at it from a cultural perspective and making sure it speaks to someone who doesn't look like you? I can go on........ but you're up. Let's see what you've got! #femalesandfinance #bettertogether #hiring #mentoring #training
