Black women’s leadership in the workplace is often met with the same challenges Vice President Kamala Harris faces on the national stage: A constant pursuit of visibility, credibility, and validation, often before receiving the support needed to thrive. Too often, Black women must prove ourselves two, three, or even four times over before we are granted the recognition and support we deserve. Despite our qualifications, we contend with stereotypes, skepticism, and a critical gaze that questions our leadership at every turn. This experience is far too common in organizations, where Black women are asked to lead, solve problems, and drive impact without the resources, mentorship, sponsorship or acknowledgment given to our counterparts. Yet, our contributions are transformative. 💁🏾♀️ This dynamic must be shifted by recognizing and supporting Black women’s leadership potential early and consistently in our workplaces. Our success fuels the success of our organizations, and we all thrive when organization’s invest in our growth and potential.
