When it's time for tough conversations, usually related to your performance and progression in your workplace, an all too familiar experience is the breakdown of communication. All of a sudden, the person who should have the answers, can't provide them or the mark that you had to meet, is no longer sufficient measure. Join The Access Point hosts Dr. Lonnie Morris & Dr. Wendy M. Edmonds, and special guest Keahn Gary, for a riveting discussion.
Discussion insights: (1) Why is it seemingly difficult to have direct conversations about value, performance, and career progression with Black and brown professionals. (2) What role do you need to play in fostering comfort and trust to support open and honest communication? (3) How do you hold your boss accountable for shifting the goalpost? (4) What do you do if nothing changes?
