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.
