It’s never easy to share moments of disappointment, but I believe in the power of vulnerability and authenticity. Recently, I had the honour of being a finalist in two categories at the Women in Wealth Awards. While it was an incredible achievement to be recognised, I ultimately did not take home an award. I’ll be honest—missing out was tough. The self-doubt has crept in, and I question my path, my work, and whether I should continue pushing forward. It’s natural to feel conflicted emotions: happiness for the deserving winners, yet sadness for not being recognised myself. To all my fellow nominees who didn’t win, I see you and I feel your pain. But let’s not let this moment define us or diminish our efforts. We were finalists for a reason; our impact and contributions are real and meaningful. This experience has reminded me of an important truth: recognition is wonderful, but it is not the sole measure of our worth or success. Let’s continue to support each other, celebrate the small victories, and keep moving forward with resilience and determination. Congratulations to the winners—you inspire us all. And to everyone else, remember that our journeys are unique and valuable. We are all winners in our own right. 🌟 #WomenInWealth #Resilience #KeepGoing #SupportEachOther

This Women’s Month, let's transcend mere inspiration and ignite tangible action. If you: 1) Hold a leadership position in marketing or general management, regardless of gender, 2) Aspire to contribute to narrowing the gender gap and giving back, 3) Have a real-life connection with me, and 4) Are open to dedicating just 25 minutes of your time for 1 to 3 "speed mentoring" calls with other women this year Then I urge you to reach out below or send a message, and together we'll facilitate meaningful connections. Thanks to the overwhelming response last year, we successfully paired remarkable women leaders with 200 mentees at various career stages. This year, our goal is even loftier: 250 matches. With the increasing demand for guidance and support, your participation could make a profound difference. Let's transform aspirations into realities and empower the next generation of women leaders. Join us in making Women’s Month more impactful than ever before.

This edition of Female Leaders who’ve inspired and impacted me is especially close to my heart ❤️ For nearly a quarter century Inna Gardner has been a role model, a mentor, a partner and most importantly a best friend. As our careers have grown side by side, I’m constantly in awe of the incredible work she’s done to build her businesses at Gartner, raise two incredible children, and be constantly generous with her time and attention to help others. Things I’ve learned from Inna: 1. Authenticity Over Everything- what you see is what you get with Inna, and what you get is intelligence, humor and a constant desire to make things better. 2. Grace Under Pressure- we’ve been through it all (at work and personally), and I’m always in awe of Inna’s ability to stay calm and focused and to always move everyone around her forward with her head held high. 3. Be a People Leader First- No one who has worked with Inna has ever felt anything less than seen and appreciated. She puts her people and her partners first, and she’s consistently investing in the incredible talent that surrounds her. 4. Send the Elevator Back Down- Inna advocates. For female sellers and leaders. For LGBTQIA+ colleagues. For increasing diversity and inclusion in every possible and her people legacy demonstrates that clearly. In short, she’s pretty freaking amazing. And I feel lucky every single day that’s she’s my ride or die no matter what’s happening at work or at home 🏡 If you’ve been lucky enough to have had a little Inna magic in your life, shout down below! 👇

In a groundbreaking study, insights from nearly fifty Chief Diversity Officers (CDOs) have been unveiled, offering a deep dive into their experiences and perspectives. Unlike previous studies, which often relied on external viewpoints, this research provides a first-hand account of how CDOs strategize and execute Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The findings define CDOs' impact and reveal the strategies they use to drive change and the reciprocal effects of leading DEI efforts. These nuanced insights offer a unique lens into the challenges and tangible effects CDOs encounter while advancing DEI efforts. Discover how these revelations can enhance DEI initiatives within your organization by exploring the authentic portrayal of the pivotal role CDOs play in fostering inclusivity and equity. https://lnkd.in/eqCZKUew

*OPPORTUNITY ALERT* White and Black Women Archetypes Thursday, April 11, 2024 3:00pm - 4:30pm ET In this discussion, four leaders come together for a discussion on black women leadership and the archetypes that ENABLE injustice. The realities of Black women in leadership have arrived at the center of discourse across the nation. Black women leaders and their accomplices are driving the effort to unpack and move through shared experiences of harm.

I’ve never said this before… But the truth is, I’m here because someone else believed in me… Someone gave me their vote of confidence and it got me the Director title. But not every black woman in the workplace will have the know-how to get the support that she needs to move ahead in her career. And while we want to tell ourselves that we’re making progress in getting more black women into leadership positions, the stats don’t lie… In the 2023 women in the workplace report: → women of colour represented 1 in 16 C-Suite leaders → For every 100 men that were promoted last year, only 54 black women were promoted → Only 7% of VPs and Senior VPs were women of colour That’s why my purpose has never been more clear to me: 𝙈𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙈𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙮 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙗𝙡𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙬𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙣 🔥 And we’re here to make history this women’s history month with something that’s never done before. Stay tuned for a special announcement next week 🖤 Drop a 🔥 in the comments below, if you’re ready to make history with me this women’s month ________ #Leadershipdevelopment #careeradvancement #diversityandinclusion #womenleadership #elevatewithrebecca

According to this research and despite modest female representation progress in senior leadership roles, Black women still face unique barriers to reaching the upper ranks, and their much slower promotion pace has led them to, on average, take more frequent career risks than their white counterparts. Companies should take a holistic view and facilitate organizational changes that create positive leadership experiences for all employees and elicit more opportunities for minority leaders to emerge.
