[S5E6] You Can't Sit With Us (ft. Dr. Brenda Carter)

While diversity and representation continue is additive to business strategy, many organizations still struggle to recruit, reward, and retain a diverse workforce. While we'd expect the most senior Black/brown people in the workplace to serve as a built-in mentor, coach or advocate, that is not always the case. It's even worse when it feels like they actively undermine you. The Access Point hosts Drs. Lonnie & Wendy welcome special guest Dr. Brenda Carter to discuss further.

Discussion Insights: What is gatekeeping? What does this mean in the workplace? What is the long term effect of not dealing with gatekeeping - overt and covert? What do we want to see in people who control access to power, information, opportunity, and resources?
