Dorothy Enriquez, Founder of the Ellevate Collective, shares her wisdom about what's required to change the face of leadership to fully reflect today's workforce.   Workplace demographics are rapidly changing. Researchers predict that somewhere between 2045 to 2050 the US will become a majority-minority nation. This reality impacts all aspects of our lives, including the face of leadership in our workplaces.   Many executive teams I work with recognize this shift. They want to build inclusive workplaces that fully reflect these shifting demographics. Yet, many feel overwhelmed because they are uncertain where to begin. They juggle competing priorities. First, they must transform their current workplace culture to prepare for this future workforce. Second, they also must develop the next and most diverse generation of U.S. leaders.   In the Belonging Membership Community, we recognize that the next generation of leaders expect so much more from their workplaces and their career velocity. They hold high expectations for their employees, and status-quo companies refusing to transform their cultures consistently fail to meet them. They also recognize to fully prepare for the future, the face of leadership – and the way we lead - must also change.   Fortunately, I had the opportunity to chat with, Dorothy Enriquez, Founder of the Elevate Collective on the latest episode of the Imagine Belonging podcast. Dorthy generously offered tangible solutions for leaders who recognize the opportunity this moment presents. As a 15-year corporate veteran and author of Be Accountable, Be Fabulous, Dorothy helps leaders maximize their influence across all levels. Listen Here Watch Here   Together, our conversation supports inclusive leaders, visionaries, change makers, DEIB professionals, and social justice champions of all backgrounds and identities as we imagine and build the future of leadership. Some topics we explored include:   --Naming specific trends reshaping the face of leadership. --Overcoming anti-Blackness hindering career velocity for Black professionals. --Holding ourselves and other executives accountable to lead with our stated values. --Distinguishing the roles your sponsors, mentors, allies, and cheerleaders play.   Savor this insightful talk, and if you're looking for more ways to connect with inspiring leaders like Dorothy, be sure to join the Belonging Membership Community – a community of inclusive leaders - and those on their way to joining us - committed to advancing their DEIB goals, practicing community care, and activating their belonging vision.   Members have the unique opportunity to engage with our guests, established thought leaders like Dorothy Enriquez, 1:1 after our live podcast recordings. There they can participate in a private Q&A session with our guests.   To learn more about the Belonging Membership Community, please visit: www.belongingmembershipcommunity.com.   Check out our next live podcast recording by joining our complimentary Belonging at Work Facebook or LinkedIn communities.   To connect with Dorothy Enriquez and enjoy 15% of The Ellevate Collective products, please visit: www.theellevatecollective.com, and use the promo code: belong15   Thanks for growing our #BelongingMovement!

On this week's episode, we are sitting down with Michal Lasman, a Marketing Professional based in Berlin. Michal has experience in Early-stage start-ups, mainly SaaS and B2B and is currently working in the FinTech sphere. The discussion this week is around the importance of resiliency in leadership and the agility needed during times of change. Michal talks us through some of her experiences in the last few years where she established marketing functions and teams during market changes, personal challenges, as well as the impact of tech layoffs. We also chat about her move from Tel-Aviv to Berlin and the tips she has for remaining resilient in a new city, new industry and top tips to manage stress. *** It is important to mention here that this episode was recorded prior to the Israel-Gaza War starting and due to the nature of the topic of resiliency, I wanted to point out we have not touched at all on this topic in our conversation. We are absolutely not overlooking the resiliency shown by so many at this time.***

"Are you planning to get married in the next two years?" was the question that a hiring manager asked Maricella Herrera on a job interview in finance in 2012. That moment would change her professional journey forever, rerouting her from her finance path to empowering a women+ community. Today, as CEO of the Ellevate Network, with over 200,000 women+ members globally, she is helping to create a culture of equity and inclusion in business. As someone who has been with her company for over ten years and was promoted from within to CEO, Maricella is exploring the challenges and exciting opportunities to step up from her previous organizational role as COO to one of strategy and vision. In this episode, we discuss Maricella's journey from war-torn El Salvador and her upbringing of resilience. We discuss how her side hustle of helping Janet Hanson, founder of the former 85 Broads, became Ellevate and how Maricella joined her efforts once she withdrew her application. Maricella recalls that was the tipping point, not just a decision based on one interview. She wanted to stay in New York, and she wanted to change the world. As an outspoken Latina who readily shares her voice, Maricella expresses the importance of finding your allies and how you will be louder if you have people around you who can support you, even if you can't be loud yourself. We compare the difference between being a "generalist" versus niching down in your skills and how to think bigger, especially when you've been promoted within the same company. Maricella dispels the myth that only hard work gets you to the next level and that talking about your accomplishments and ensuring people know your value is the answer to getting ahead.

‘When ambitious professional women get more opportunity — to have a voice in important conversations, to steer our collective economic power towards that which we care about — it ultimately benefits everyone, and leads to a more equal world.' - Ellevate NetworkMaricella Herrera Avila is the CEO of Ellevate Network, the largest community for women+ at work focused on creating a culture of equity and inclusion in business.

It's no secret anymore that – especially in the thought leadership space – content is king. But how do you figure out what content to create? How do you narrow down what content will be helpful to your audience, or, more importantly, how to write content that urges them to action? In this episode, we're tackling these questions with the help of ghostwriter, speaker, and podcaster Emily Crookston. Emily is a former philosophy professor and the owner of "The Pocket Ph.D," a company that "helps experts—who are long on ideas, but short on time—write business books." Put simply, Emily and her team work with individuals and companies to build their LinkedIn networking efforts through content creation. In her words, "Many experts are simply too close to their subjects to interpret them for a lay audience... I help clients clarify the complex, craft captivating content, and figure out how to propel readers to act." Her work has also appeared in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Ellevate, Psychology Today, Rolling Stone, Inman, SmartBrief, and ThriveGlobal. And she's joined us today to share her greatest ghostwriting tips including how to hire a ghostwriter yourself. So, without further ado, let's dive in!

He holds a Master's degree from the London School of Economics and a Ph.D. from Columbia University.

Janine MacLachlan is on a mission to get ideas heard. She's a communications strategist with deep experience in brand positioning and business storytelling. Janine works with executives and aspiring leaders in the areas of executive visibility, thought leadership and essentially helps them get out of their own way. How many of us would like a little help with that? Growing up in Saginaw, Michigan with three siblings, she admits that they have different childhood memories than she does because while they were outside in the yard playing ball, she was in her room absorbed in her reading. Janine loved books. She also wrote lots of stories and sketched pictures to go along with them. In fact, when her parents downsized their home a few years ago, they gave her a box full of the stories she authored as a kid. In college, she majored in journalism, working as an editor for the university newspaper. Upon graduation, Janine went to work for a public relations agency where she was able to get a wide range of experience.  After several job and geographic moves, Janine became the Director of Marketing and Communications for the American Dental Association in Chicago. She remained there for nine years when she decided to start her own communications firm.  Today, Janine is a regular contributor to Forbes in the area of leadership strategy, where she has interviewed executives from AbbVie, Microsoft, and 3M, as well as authors, and academics. In this week's Work From The Inside Out podcast, learn more about Janine's journey: Janine is an activator at SheEO, a multi-national organization that provides loans and mentoring to women-owned businesses that support the United Nations' sustainable development goals. An advocate for women at work, she is president of the Chicago chapter of Ellevate, a global network of professional women. Janine authored a book published by the University of Illinois Press, called Farmer's Markets of the Heartland where she traveled to eight Midwestern states to visit farmers' markets, meet farmers, interview chefs, and food artisans. She did all the photography, too. Her background in public relations enabled her to put together the book in a way that she could tell stories about sustainable food production, as well as the people who sell beautifully grown food at farmers' markets.

Summary: Morgan Martin, CEO of CoApt Projects and Director of Operational Excellence at SCORE Mentors, and I discuss what it's been like for her to build a business. She provides guidance on what to do if you're looking to switch industries in your career, and how to prepare to start your own business, or spend time freelancing. I continue to hear about the importance of patience on my professional journey. Morgan really put it into perspective when she mentioned building a “portfolio” of experiences we can draw from. Some folks choose to specialize early, and others will try jobs and industries that appear to be very different. Both can be equally fulfilling journeys on the road to growing up. I admire Morgan for her drive to be a connecter of people. Morgan reached out to me on LinkedIn after a PMI-DVC event and I'm so grateful she did. She creates opportunities for others via her business (which matches businesses in need to skilled project managers), through her work at SCORE Mentors (which matches small business owners to one of over 10,000 mentors with business expertise) and by participating in groups like Ellevate.A few references you may be interested in reading more about:CoApt Projects, Morgan Martin's company, https://coaptprojects.com/SCORE Mentors, non-profit organization, https://www.score.org/Freelancing Females, https://www.freelancingfemales.com/Project Management Institute - Delaware Valley Chapter, professional organization chapter, https://pmi-dvc.org/Upwork, freelancing site, https://www.upwork.com/Ellevate, women's networking group, https://www.ellevatenetwork.com/Nik & the Nice Guys, band, https://www.nikentertainment.com/bands/Nik-and-the-Nice-Guys/Reinventing Work, community, https://www.reinventing.work/Follow along:whenyougrowup.orgwww.instagram.com/whenyougrowup_podcast/ #wygupodcast #podcast #career #personalgrowth #professionalgrowth #mentor #rolemodel #professionaldevelopment #pmp #education #settinggoals #volunteering #bootstrapping #networking #freelancing #freelance #entrepreneur #solopreneur #womeninbusiness #reinventyourself #projectmanagement #recruiting #jobsearch
