73. Discussing Access Denied, Addressing Workplace Disparities and Discrimination with author, Brenda Harrington‪.‬ Girl, Take the Lead!

    • Management

Brenda Harrington joins Yo to discuss her book Access Denied, Addressing Workplace Disparities
and Discrimination. In Access Denied, Brenda
addresses what it takes to pave a path to success. She explains that beyond
degrees, experience and competence, it is necessary to interpret an
organization’s culture, the behaviors that are tolerated and rewarded and who
the power players are, through a lens of diversity and inclusion. Both Brenda
and Yo share some of their experiences as they advanced in their careers.

 

Here are 3 Takeaways:


1. No, you are not crazy. What has happened and is
happening to you is real and trust your intuition.


2. Being aware of the political game and your company
culture is a necessity.


3. If we look at advancement like a game then developing
and trying different strategies are possible
