Overlooked for a Merited Leadership Opportunity? Here’s How to Overcome the Rejection

November 29, 2024 By Dr. Shibu Selatole Leave a Comment

businesswomen unhappy at desk

I am curious why, if what her close aides and advisors said was true, Kamala Harris was reluctant to put her female identity as part of her presidential campaign when Hillary Clinton partly staked hers, when she ran, on being the first female president. I suppose the fact that some of Clinton's supporters were attacked as 'vag*** voters' and that she didn't succeed did not help … [Read more...]

female executives overcome challenges

Unfortunately, we're still talking about gender parity in the workplace.

The imbalance of women in business leadership positions persists despite the growing number of studies that consistently find the same thing---businesses with diverse leadership teams, which include women in executives roles, perform better than businesses that lack women at the top.

The Entitlement of Entrepreneurs

June 6, 2014 By Leona Charles

It takes an insane amount of courage and determination to be an entrepreneur. Our perspective is always eerily optimistic and we don’t always respond well to ‘feedback’.

Everyone else has come along for the ride to support us or … [Read more...]

Are we sabotaging ourselves?

March 5, 2014 By Ashley Nialetz

It's time to stop sabotaging and start ruling! I was recently asked to be a part of a start up app development company. I was brought into this very promising company as an owner, me…the only woman in a group of 4 people total.  I felt honored and pretty bad*ss :)  I have a lot to contribute and a lot of skills and experiences to share as this is a tech centered company which … [Read more...]

How Small Businesses Fail

January 20, 2014 By Leona Charles

virtual employee management

I recently had a conversation with a colleague about the way we disadvantage ourselves in business. Now I know this is a touchy subject but hear me out, I have something to say about this. As a minority business owner it’s really easy for me to assign blame and scream that it’s not fair but there’s no education in that. While I am not going to pretend that everything if … [Read more...]

I had an interesting conversation today about strategy and growth. What was different about this conversation was that the tone of it just made sense.

Confer with your colleagues This … [Read more...]

October 18, 2013 By Leona Charles

time is money crumpled dollar bills on clock

Carmelo Anthony is supposedly toying with the idea of being a free agent, definitely a gutsy move for a Knicks player. Here’s why I think it’s the right move and how his thinking can help move your business to the next level. You have to assess your worth Carmelo likened his choice to an evaluation exercise.
