Take-A-Lesson is Taking Off!

Take-A-Lesson: Uncovering Hidden Mentors for Diverse Leaders has taken off and is fast becoming the place to me Friday's at 1PM PST. This program highlights corporate, non-profit, community leaders willing to share their leadership journey with the listening audience of Altruistic Leadership. For the diverse community, the Ursula Burns’ CEO of Xerox are unique and few. However, several talented executives have traversed the hard path of corporate America in the midst of cultural bias, challenges, and criticism. While these leaders are lesser known to the populous-at-large, they are the reason we have opportunities to run Fortune 500 companies. Their journeys, in some cases, are ending--during a time in which unemployment for people of color is twice that of traditional leadership. They see this and want to share with the listeners their triumphs, tripping points, and techniques.

I invite your to hear their stories and share in their thought leadership. Don't just let life pass you by, Take-A-Lesson!
