I was invited by Fortune to speak at their Most Powerful Women summit, 2020.
I was part of the event titled ‘PRE-SUMMIT ROUNDTABLE: ALLYSHIP AND ACCOUNTABILITY-IT’S A MARATHON, NOT A SPRINT‘ speaking alongside Lindsay-Rae McIntyre, Corporate Vice President and Chief Diversity Officer, Microsoft,
Barbara Whye, Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer, Corporate Vice President of Social Impact, Intel Corporation
The session was moderated by Ellen McGirt, FORTUNE; Co-chair, Most Powerful Women Summit, with an introduction from Carin Taylor, Chief Diversity Officer, Workday.
‘Being an effective ally means participating in hard conversations, balancing and dedicating time to support others, having a pulse on what opportunities are available, being willing to learn from mistakes, and having the patience to commit to racial justice for the long haul. These business leaders share the real talk of how to become a better ally—and how executives and their companies can navigate the challenges and opportunities made along the way.
