About this listen

Being a Black woman in corporate America is no small feat. Unlock the path to success with these seven secrets….

You're always facing twofold discrimination for being Black and a woman in a place not designed for you to bring 100 percent of yourself. You try to take the stairs to corporate success, only to end up on the same floor; meanwhile, your White counterparts quickly ascend to the top floor.

Your managers frequently question your judgment and competence, undermining your expertise. Your colleagues often view you only through a distorted lens, both blind to their biases and the struggles you have made to get this far. And at the end of the day, the support you're getting is not enough to open the doors to promotion or pay raises. But know that you are not alone.

Black women often face challenges working in corporate America. A study by McKinsey & Company revealed that Black women are more ambitious, with 59 percent aspiring to be top executives, compared to 49 percent of women leaders in general, but lack workplace support.

Despite these obstacles, you remain steadfast in your determination to lead and make an impact. But why should you struggle every day, especially when the power to break through these barriers has been with you all along? This book will reveal how to tap into your innate leadership potential and propel yourself forward to overcome obstacles and thrive in your career.

Listeners will discover the ultimate roadmap to elevating their corporate success from mere survival to thriving—all it takes is uncovering the seven game-changing secrets! The incredible power of your brand—and the essential strategies to use it to your advantage—and much more.

Taking action as a black woman in corporate America!

I really enjoyed this read, for it relates to many experiences I have had to go through or simply witnessed as a black woman in corporate America. From code switching to having to work harder for certain positions than others. This read has encouraged me to remain resilient in corporate America and aim to be the leader I am. I will also be able to implement feedback and actions I learned from this read in my professional and personal world.

I expected more

I selected this book because I was looking for help to navigate the Corporate world as a Black Woman. This book didn't offer much practical advice. It felt as if it written by someone who never worked in the Corporate world at all.
