Hello, I'd really like to grow this email list. If you enjoy this newsletter, it would mean the world to Jola and I if you encouraged one friend/fellow immigrant/colleague to subscribe…Very likely, the the only thing you will get in return is warm fuzzy feelings, and if I can attribute it to you, I'd personally send you a thank you email.Join us as we explore the bitter-sweet world of the immigrant.As an immigrant, it's easy to feel the need to show up and represent your home country's brand. To be great. To be of good behaviour. To show that your people are worth it.Especially now. Especially with all that's going on in the world at this time. When immigrants have become the next best thing to blame for all that's wrong with society.It can be tiring.So, I think we should take Onyeka Okonkwo's advice…learn to give ourselves some grace. Give yourself permission to fail. To try again. To make mistakes. To live. To love. To enjoy everyday.Onyeka joined me on The Newcomers to chat about why she left Nigeria. We also talked about:* Working in Lagos vs. working in London* Finding her footing in her new home * Her approach to dealing with all the stuff immigrating to a new country throws at you* The burden of black tax* Learning to advocate for herself, and more. Again, give yourself some grace, dear immigrant. You've got this. This is a public episode.

This week on Mission CTRL, Ramon and the Flight Crew sat down with the Executive Director of CT Next, Onyeka “Ony” Obiocha.  Born and raised in Windsor Connecticut, Ony's interest in entrepreneurship was sparked by his father who arrived home one evening with dozens of gum ball machines and announced he would be placing them in local barber shops throughout Connecticut.  Ony's first foray into entrepreneurship failed fabulously but, if you're not failing you're not learning.  Upon graduating from the University of Connecticut, Ony became intrigued with the concept of using economic enterprises to solve social ills.   Ony initially thought the idea of selling coffee beans and opening a brick and mortar shop was ludicrous, but that's exactly what he ended up doing.  After only a year in business they were recognized by the National Retail Federation as one of the most innovative retail spaces in the country.  Ony's work created an incredible buzz on Yale's campus, prompting a professor to leave the hallowed halls of Yale University and visit “A Happy Life” coffee roasting company and offer him a position as a teaching ‘fellow'.  Ony consults for entrepreneurship service organizations in Budapest and Beijing, and his work has been featured in Fast Company, Stanford Social Innovation Review, and Take Magazine.  Tune in as Ramon and Ony launch into a fascinating discussion about the intersection of pop culture, content creation, innovation and using culture as the front door to entrepreneurship. . .

The Tudor period remains a source of timeless fascination, with endless novels, TV programmes and films depicting the period in myriad ways. And yet our image of the Tudor era remains overwhelmingly white. This ground-breaking and provocative new book seeks to redress the balance: revealing not only how black presence in Tudor England was far greater than has previously been recognised, but that Tudor conceptions of race were far more complex than we have been led to believe. Onyeka Nubia's original research shows that Tudors from many walks of life regularly interacted with people of African descent, both at home and abroad, revealing a genuine pragmatism towards race and acceptance of difference. Nubia also rejects the influence of the 'Curse of Ham' myth on Tudor thinking, persuasively arguing that many of the ideas associated with modern racism are in fact relatively recent developments. England's Other Countrymen: Black Tudor Society (Bloomsbury, 2019) is a bravura and eloquent forgotten history of diversity and cultural exchange, and casts a new light on our own attitudes towards race.

Whether you are preparing for a momentous occasion, a formal event, or a night out on the town, we all want to look good. We want our hair, skin, and overall appearance to look as beautiful as when we were younger, and it is tough keeping up with all that maintenance as the years keep rolling by. We not only want to look good, but we want the energy and vibrancy to enjoy our lives and feel good. Let's learn more with our two guests for this episode!We are joined by two sisters, Dr. Onyeka Ihezie and Dr. Amaka Ugbome. They are pharmacists by day who have a passion for all things natural by night. Their interest comes from their bloodline and their commitment to natural hair care. They found little information and products on the market that catered to our natural tresses, so they began doing extensive research and educating themselves on how to create amazing products for our delicate strands. Their love of hair care blossomed into a passion with a mission to create quality, natural, healthy products–but they didn't stop there. They spend time and resources educating women to care for their hair and skin, and they volunteer in various capacities to help others. At one time, they partnered with the Black Girl Tribe, a nonprofit organization aimed toward empowering and developing young black women. They even supplied over $2000 worth of handmade products to support the women in this organization. Their online store makes products available in many different countries around the world, and we are thrilled to have them on the show!Show Highlights:How they bridged the gap between pharmacy and skin/hair careHow their personal hair experiences led them to rethink “good hair” and “bad hair”Why everyone has to come to the point on their own to embrace their natural hairWhat to consider about safe/unsafe productsHow their products are unique, natural, and formulated especially for black hair, using ingredients from nature and avoiding harmful chemicalsThe sisters' advice about a hair care regimen and what products are the most essentialWhy your skin care regimen should include a good hydrating cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and serumHow to fight aging skin, aging hair, hair thinning, and hair lossWhy aging hair, processed hair, and gray hair have drastic changes in textureHow to approach hair care and skin care with consistent changes over timeThe sisters' take on trendy ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, collagen, and retinolsHow supplements (a multivitamin, calcium, vitamin D, vitamin E, and Omega-3s) can support healthy hair and skinHow to find their products

Carmen Canales  00:03Hello, I'm Carmen Canales, Senior Vice President and Chief People and Belonging Officer at Novant Health. Welcome to Talent Talk, a podcast that focuses on leadership strategies for engagement, development, and retention for the modern workforce. In each episode of Talent Talk, I'll interview a different leader about their transformational practices in leading, engaging and retaining teams and supportive our patients and communities. These conversations will leave you with a few key takeaways and actions you can put into place on your own teams. Our guest today is Onyeka Nchege, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer at Novant Health. Onyeka has more than 25 years of experience in leading teams developing strategies and building digital technology solutions. Prior to joining Novant Health, Onyeka held leadership positions in multiple industries, including in the automotive aftermarket replacement batteries, financial services, and consumer packaged goods. Onyeka, thank you for joining us today as we focus on transformational leadership. Onyeka Nchege  01:11Thank you for having me. Carmen Canales  01:13Onyeka, take a moment to tell us a little bit about your background, and about yourself and your role at Novant Health. Onyeka Nchege  01:20All right. So, you know, Carmen, I appreciate I appreciate you either, sharing all that about my background. And, and so when I'm asked to tell us a little bit about yourself, I'll be totally honest with you all that sounds great. But I always go into, look, I'm a husband, I'm a father, I'm a son, I'm an uncle, you know, I'm a brother. And that's, that's who I am. At the core of it all, it's about family for me. And that's who you get. I'm a friend, right? And those are all the those are all the things that truly define kind of who I am and and what I want to be known for. You know, it's, it's great that, you know, God, God's been good to me over the years, and I've had an opportunity to be a CIO at, you know, a number of major brands within, within the US and all that's great. But, you know, when it comes down to it, husband, father, son, uncle, brother, friend, those are the things that matter to me. Carmen Canales  02:26Onyeka, I love you distinguishing who I am versus what I do. That does not surprise me one bit about you. Onyeka Nchege  02:33Yeah. So, and then, and then, you know, at Novant Health, you know, my, my role is just accountability to the DPS team members. It's the accountability to the organization, Novant Health organization, to patient care to all the communities that we serve. It's, it's that role that is all about, you know, how do we leverage technology? How do we leverage innovation? And how do we optimize the things that we currently have today, that allow us to provide that patient care that patient experience that remarkable, right? So that's, that's, that's what the role is all about. Carmen Canales  03:13Well, Onyeka, so as you focus on that, tell our listeners about your leadership style, and what's your approach to leadership in general? Onyeka Nchege  03:20Yeah, that's a great question, Carmen. You know, from a leadership style, it's, I'd say it's collaborative. That's probably the the word that I would use, you know, what is my leadership style, it's it's a collaborative leadership style, it is a leadership style, that is a that is a purpose driven leadership style that that truly as a, you know, I believe in the lead from the back. And folks always go, what is that lead from the back? And it's, it's the opportunity to allow my team members allow my, my direct reports and all that report into my organization to take a leadership role themselves, right? I'm a firm believer that you know, you don't start leading the day that you're handed an opportunity. You start leading well before you're handed an opportunity. And the only way to really get there is if you have an opportunity to do some of that, to walk a mile if you will, in someone's shoes, in a leader shoes. And so I have an opportunity to push my team members forward and allow them to lead and so that that is the leadership style that I ascribe to. And that's how I, that's how I try to show up every day. Is that collaborative, inclusive leadership style that brings everybody along at the same time. Carmen Canales  04:30Onyeka, I hear in your conversation, not just a commitment to leadership, but also in mentorship and in developing leaders. So, tell us what sparked your interest in that. How did you discover that you were good at that? And how did you discover your interest in that? Onyeka Nchege  04:44Yeah, so you know, my, my, wow, that goes back that you're taking me back, Carmen (old school!). That goes that goes way back. So, I remember. It's, I'll tell you this story, right. And I and I've recounted the story. I've told the story several times over the years, when I first started working, I worked for an organization called Wachovia. So I graduated college, I went to join the Wachovia operational services on their management training program, you know, you six months intensive, all the all the stuff take you through the rounds at the bank, and you show and then you graduate, and then you get assigned to anyway, I got assigned to this group and I graduated, I went to Georgia State in Atlanta, graduated, started with Wachovia In Atlanta, finished the six-month intensive program and got and got sent to Winston-Salem to work as part of the eCommerce organization. And when I was there, I remember one day, this is some data and myself, I was way back when I first came out, right? And there was, there was this email that came to me, and it was it was a joke, right? So, it's, you know, I don't know if you remember that, like people would always send these emails with all these jokes. And, and, right now it's TikTok and Instagram and all that kind of stuff, right? Nobody sends jokes in emails anymore. Back then they did. And so, I remember getting it reading and thinking it was funny. And I forwarded it to a buddy of mine that worked at the bank with me, right. And later that day, I remember Mark, he was the vice president of...can't remember his full title, but he's the, he was the VP. He got it somehow, got that email and then he calls me into his office, right? And he goes, hang on you stop by? So, I stopped by. And he says, hey man, just want to just want to share something with you. (Oh no) You sent an email out earlier today. And, you know, the question I have for you is, is this who you want to be? Is this how you want people to know you? That you are, he said, you know, I read the same email when it was sent to me. I read it. And I thought it was funny. I laughed at it. But I didn't send it on to anyone. He said, because that's not who I want to be. That's not how I want people to know me. So, the question for you, is that really what you want, and that stuck with me? Right one that he took the time out to coach man, even though I didn't realize that's what coach/mentor was at the time. But he took the time out to do that for me, and to say, look man, let me let me help you along. Because there may be some things that you may not be aware of, there may be some "unspokens" that you didn't know about. And that that literally was the impetus for me to say I want to be I want to be "Mark" one day, right? I want to pay that forward to someone else to someones else, right? And that's how it started for me. So now, you know, I tell people that I that I mentor and coach, you know, I, I want to be a brain to pick, an ear to listen, and a push in the right direction. And that's the commitment I make to them. A brain to pick, an ear to listen, and a push in the right direction when you need it. And so that, that has become, you know, uber-important to me, honestly. Because, I want to see, I want to make sure that you know, folks have an opportunity to do the same things that I did and more, right? Because I look back and I go, like who knows whether that moment with Mark was the, was one of the moments that propelled me on to where I am today. I like to think it did. And so, I want to pay it back. Carmen Canales  08:27What a fantastic story about your days as a as a "Wachovian". I remember being called that myself! Onyeka Nchege  08:34Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Carmen Canales  08:39Onyeka tell us about your career. Tell us about your passion for technology and digital innovation. Where does that come from? Was there a particular thing that sparked your interest in that?   Onyeka Nchege  08:51I don't know that there was necessarily any one thing that that sparked my interest in that. I will tell you, unlike, unlike probably some others that are in this field, mine took a, mine took a non-traditional approach to get here. Because, you know, when I was with, you know, going anchoring back on Wachovia, when I was there, you know, I was I was part of an operations group, not the technology team. But, when I went through that, that, that six months of management training, one of the things that came out was, man, he's got a strong technical aptitude. And so, I was, I was put with an organization, eCommerce back then, that worked very closely with the technology organization. So, I had an opportunity to interface with engineers and analysts. And, you know, and so I just, I developed a, an interest in the work that was happening across the tracks, right, I call it. And so I would spend time with the technology team, just understanding what they do, why they do it, and being able to close the gap between what is being requested, and the work that actually has to be done to create whatever is being requested, right? And so, that, that's the thing that, that sparked the interest for me in terms of wanting to be a part of how do I impact lives in an organization, right, by being able to, being able to bring solutions to the table? And those solutions in this case, are technology solutions and innovation and innovative solutions, how do I bring...how do I help bring that to life in organizations? And so that was important to me. And, then that's how I got involved, if you will, in the, in the technology space and in the innovation space. And I've been able to, to leverage those experiences over the years with multiple organizations. You know, to be able to not just develop leaders, but also be able to bring technological advances to the organization as well. Carmen Canales  10:56So, in your time as a Chief Information Officer in healthcare and at Novant, Health, what changes have you seen in the healthcare landscape? And how does that impact the work of you and your team? Onyeka Nchege  11:08I'm going to take it at a broader level, because I think it's, it's, I see something similar across all industries in terms of talent. I think that's the key, you know, organizations always say, you know, our people are our best asset, right? And, that the proof is in the pudding in terms of how we interact with engage with, nurture, right, that talent, right? It's easy to say, you know, our people our best asset, but if you're not, if you're not doing all the things that that demonstrate that, then it's just talk, right? And so, I think, when the change that I see, and I see that in our organization, right? So, this is there's a difference between, you know, we will take care of you versus we will care for you, right? And there's a big difference there. And I think our organization has done a good job of, of probably transitioning from, we will take care of you too, we will care for you, right? Because, if we care for you, then we give you all the things that you need to be successful as, as an, as an associate, right, or a team member. Versus we will take care of you, which might suggest that, you know, we'll do everything for you, which is not healthy for folks that, that are team members in our organization. So, I think that's, that's the thing that I have seen that I think is a difference-maker for not just, not just the healthcare, but any, any industry that I've been a part of is being able to focus in on, on the people. Right? And that, that and making that they're our best asset making that real.   Carmen Canales  12:44And that's why you're a featured guest today. That's what that's why it's Talent Talk, right? Regardless of industry, it's about the people. Onyeka Nchege  12:51That's, a that's a very good point. I didn't think about that. But yes! Carmen Canales  12:55So, Onyeka, sometimes things don't go as we plan. Our listeners, I'm sure would love to hear about a mistake that you've made in your career. And importantly, what did you learn from it? Onyeka Nchege  13:08That's a good one. That's a good one. Mistakes, listen, I have made my share of mistakes over the years, there's no question about it. Probably two come to mind for me. I think when I was when I was a Senior Director at I think it was like Coca Cola at the time. When I first started with Coca Cola, it's many years back. And I had an opportunity to bring a product into the organization. And my team had been working on it well, before I got there, right? So, they they've been working on it. And so, I show up, and it's not going well. And, I have an opportunity to go talk to one of the Senior VPs about the fact that, hey, this, this, this thing is not gonna it's not gonna go in, on the day that we had originally said it was gonna go in. And so, I march, you know, I'm like, now I'm a truth teller. I'm transparent. I'm authentic. And I walk right into his office. I'm like, hey, man, this is not gonna go and hit baba, baba, you know, just going on about why it's not gonna work, right? And so, you might ask, well, what's the mistake in that? And it was a lesson for me, right? Because I hadn't thought through how I would have that conversation. (Okay) I just watched into to have the conversation (Oh no), as opposed to really thinking through, what's the best way to get my point across, right? So, intent versus delivery. My intent was right, my delivery was full of crap! It sucked! And so that that was a lesson for me. And, you know, one, taking two steps back, right, and really thinking through, what is it that you really want to say, and how do you want I say it, and know your audience, right? Understanding who it is that you're going to go talk to, and it wasn't title. In this case, it was how the person receives information...that I did not take into account. So, that's, that was that I remember that (So, how did it go?) I'm here. (It turned out, okay!). Yeah, it's, I learned how about let me let me put it this way, I learned from it. (I love it!) And he was he was in a coaching moment. So, he took the time to coach me with the, you may want to, you may want to step out, think through that and come back in which I really appreciate it. It was, and that was some real coaching because it and I did, I literally paused, walked out the door, closed the door, spent about five minutes behind the door, literally. And then I opened the door and came back in. And I apologized for the way I I stepped through the first time. And it was good. So, I learned a ton from that. My second, my second mistake, career mistake. And listen, you know, we all learn from it, right? So, I was with an organization and, and we were putting in a product. And I heard one thing. So, my team had told me, hey, here's everything that we're doing, here's how much it's gonna cost us about half a million dollars, and we're good to go. I said, okay, so I'm in with the I mean with the "E" team. And I'm part of the "E" team at this time, right? So, I mean with them, and we're talking and, and I said, Alright, hey, listen, guys, I'm gonna "thumbs up", I'm gonna move move ahead and get this, get the system, and put it in. And everybody was like, okay. But the next day I signed the agreement, and we push forward, right? Two days later, I had two of the "E" team members come to me and go ahead and say Onyeka, we weren't ready. Why did you sign that agreement? We're not...we never said we were ready to go. And I said, well, I brought it up. And, and I realized I brought it up. But, in my eagerness to go forward, I didn't hear the "Yes". I saw a couple of head nods and I just went with that because I was ready to go and committed the organization to half a million dollars' worth of product that we never intended to use. Because my partners weren't ready to go. And so, you know, lesson, lesson there for me was and I actually put some controls in place as a result, because I had to go unwind half a million dollars that an organization had already booked revenue on it, right? So, I had to go unwind that and thank God for relationships, right? So, I had built a relationship with that company, on and on. So, I was it took a while. Don't get me wrong, it took a while to unwind it, but we finally did. And I remember going to our CEO and saying, hey, listen, I don't need my daddy to help me just yet. But I want you to know that this is happening. And at some point, I may need to call my daddy and to help me. (Oh no.). But as of right now, I'm good to go. So, but you know, lesson learned for me was you know, make sure you get make sure you get "Yes", verbal yesses from everyone. When you're when you're doing something this critical this important, don't just rely on head nods or, or thumbs up? No, no, no, I need it in writing. Right? If we're ready to go, and we're going to commit the organization to a million dollars, half a million dollars, whatever it is 20,000, then all of us need to agree that we're ready to go. But I've learned from it. Carmen Canales  18:30Onyeka, you might win the prize thus far for Talent Talk podcast guest with the most spectacular mistake. And lesson learned! Onyeka Nchege  18:41That's a good thing. Nobody wants to be known for that! Carmen Canales  18:47Onyeka, as we draw to a close, tell our listeners what final leadership tips do you have for them? Onyeka Nchege  18:53Wow, final leadership tips. I think I'd anchor on what I call all five points. And all five points is begins with ownership. Right? Regardless of what you've heard, it, everything belongs to you, what you do belongs to you. You've got to figure out how you get it done, how you get things done, but it starts with you. And so if you don't have ownership on the inside, then no one's, no one's gonna be able to help you from a leadership perspective. And then secondly, it's, it's feedback. You gotta get, you got to get feedback. You got to be a student of feedback at all times. You know, I'm constantly and I know it gets on people's nerves. But I constantly ask, how did you experience me today? Right? How did you experience me today? And it gives folks permission to give you feedback. And you have to be willing to do just that. Get feedback. And then I talked about, you know, adaptability. As a leader, you have to learn the trait of being adaptable, right? You can't be so rigid that everything is just one way and that's the only way it is. And so, you have to, you have to learn how does adapt ability work and how do you, how do you, how do you lean into that? And then I talked about, you know, execution, right? It's the get 'er done, it the get ‘er done and those, that's table stakes, right? from a leadership perspective, if you're not a get 'er done kind of person. Right? It's tough to lead people or to be led. And so that's important. And then the last piece is I call it followership. Right? To be a good leader, you got to be a good follower. If you can't, if you're not a good follower, then how can you expect people to follow you when you're in a leadership role, right? So, you have to, you have to learn all of those and be good with that, to be a good leader. So that's my, that's my take now. Time will tell if I'm right. Carmen Canales  20:44Well, Onyeka, I have experienced you today in a very inspirational fashion. So, thank you for asking, and appreciate being our guest today on the Talent Talk podcast. Onyeka Nchege  20:56Thank you very much. This was great, Carmen, I really appreciate that.
