August is National Black Business Month: The journey from being a good leader to becoming a great one involves continuous growth, self-reflection, and a commitment to excellence. Transitioning from bad to good is easier than going from good to great. By focusing on empathy, learning, patience, crafting a leadership vision, and embracing failure, you can craft your leadership in ways you never imagined.

🌟Navigating Corporate Success🌟 This week I’d like to discuss the state of Black leadership in the C-Suite and insights on breaking into corporate leadership. 📰 In 2020, only 1.6% of C-suite executives were Black women (Forbes). Tracy Lawrence, CEO of The Lawrence Advisory, emphasizes understanding the unwritten rules of corporate America. "Corporations are sponsored meritocracies," she notes. To succeed, you must excel while having influential support. 💡 Tips: 1️⃣ Identify influential figures who can advocate for you. 2️⃣ Recognize the skills crucial for C-suite roles. 3️⃣ Cultivate relationships with truth-tellers at all levels. 4️⃣ Learn from those who have succeeded before you to understand the cultural nuances and unwritten expectations. 5️⃣ Develop your emotional intelligence to navigate complex corporate environments effectively. 🚨Call to Action: Reflect on the unwritten rules in your workplace. Who are your allies, and how can you support each other in advancing diverse leadership? #CorporateSuccess #InclusiveLeadership #ExecutiveCoaching

In the realm of leadership and organizational growth, how often do we pause to consider the role of systemic barriers in stifling innovation? 🚀 As we continue to honor Black History Month, it's crucial for us as leaders and change-makers to confront and address the impact of systemic racism on innovation and collective progress. 🌍 The presence of systemic racism not only curtails individual potential but also significantly limits the diversity of thought crucial for groundbreaking innovations. An inclusive environment is not just a moral imperative but a business necessity for fostering creativity and staying ahead in a competitive landscape. As leaders, it's our responsibility to identify, challenge, and dismantle these barriers within our organizations. 🛠️ This week, let's commit to scrutinizing our leadership practices and organizational cultures. Are we truly cultivating an environment where diverse perspectives are not just welcomed but sought after? I challenge you to take one actionable step towards enhancing inclusivity in your sphere of influence. Your leadership can pave the way for real change. 🌟 What strategies have you found effective in promoting inclusivity and diversity within your team or organization? Let's share and learn from each other's experiences. #LeadershipForChange #InclusiveInnovation #BlackHistoryMonth #SystemicChange #LeadershipDevelopment

📢 CABREP with Weekly Leadership Motivation Post ‼️ This quote encapsulates the essence of growth and the courage required to step beyond one's comfort zone to achieve greatness. From this quote, I've learned the importance of embracing change and the challenges that come with it. It's a reminder that progress often requires us to confront our fears and the unknown, pushing us to explore new horizons that were once thought impossible. Tyson's words have taught me that leadership is not just about guiding others but also about setting an example by daring to venture where others might hesitate, showing that the path to excellence is paved with acts of bravery and resilience. - Robert Johnson, CABREP 2024 President ‼️ JOIN CABREP TODAY ‼️ ✅ Become A Member here 👇 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gPUxMfRP 💵 Annual Dues: $100.00 ✔️ We are a network for Black Realtors, advancing as business leaders in the industry and in our communities. ✔️ We are advocates for increasing Black Homeownership. ✔️ We fully embrace our members by acknowledging, mentoring, supporting, and developing them into industry leaders both locally and nationally. 👍 Professionals of all cultural backgrounds who are interested in supporting the Black community and furthering the mission of increasing Black homeownership are welcome to join. #cabrep #supportingblackleaders #blackleadership #empoweringblackleaders #blackbusinessleaders #blackrealestate #blackhomeownership #blackleadershipadvancement #Allyship #blackwomeninrealestate #blackrealestate #blackleadershipadvancement #blackleaders #womenleaders #womeninleadership
