My guest for Episode #311 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Karin Hurt, CEO of Let's Grow Leaders, a global leadership development firm. Karin is a former Verizon Wireless executive and the award-winning author of five books, including her latest, Powerful Phrases for Dealing with Workplace Conflict. Episode page with video, transcript, and more In this episode, she shares a deeply personal and professionally pivotal story from her corporate days—an impassioned confrontation over a discriminatory hiring decision that, while well-intentioned, caused serious damage to her career. Karin unpacks how her emotional reaction—rooted in a strong sense of justice—ultimately undermined her goal. Despite advocating successfully for her team member, her public and heated delivery hurt her leadership reputation. She reflects on the importance of staying calm under pressure, choosing the right time and place to speak up, and communicating with both courage and strategy. These lessons became the foundation for the work she does today, helping leaders navigate difficult conversations with confidence and compassion. Throughout the episode, we also discuss her transition from corporate executive to keynote speaker, author, and entrepreneur. Karin explains how she and her co-author (and husband), David Dye, help teams build cultures of “productive conflict,” where differences lead to innovation rather than division. From real-world mistakes to powerful communication tools, this episode is full of insight for leaders who want to lead with heart—and get results. Questions and Topics: What's your favorite mistake, and what did you learn from it? Do you think the hiring manager eventually saw the light, or was the outcome driven by HR? Did that incident influence your decision to leave the corporate world and start your own company? How did your background in HR and operations shape your leadership approach? When did you realize you had something valuable to share publicly through your blog? How did your speaking career take off, and what was the turning point? How do you stay calm in conflict now, compared to earlier in your career? What are the four dimensions of productive conflict? How often do leaders get in trouble for what they say versus staying silent? How do you advise someone to say “no” to their boss without hurting their reputation? What are the dynamics of working with your husband as a business partner? How can teams embrace conflict as a source of innovation, not dysfunction? What's the danger of trying to fix systemic conflict at the interpersonal level? How do you handle conflict on hybrid or global teams where trust is harder to build? Is it easier to de-escalate conflict in person versus virtual or text-based communication? How do you balance encouraging courage with creating psychological safety?

E931 Dealing with Discrimination as a Police Officer: On and Off the Job

Tactical Living

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton tackle a frustrating reality that many officers face—being discriminated against simply for wearing the badge (Amazon Affiliate). In today's climate, law enforcement officers often find themselves unfairly judged in both professional and personal settings. Whether it's a store refusing service, a family member making anti-police comments, or people automatically assuming you're corrupt, these experiences can be frustrating, isolating, and even infuriating. So, how do you handle these situations without letting them eat away at you? In this episode, we discuss five real examples of discrimination against police officers and five ways to combat it with confidence and professionalism. 1. Understanding Why This Happens The anti-police narrative has been fueled by media bias, political agendas, and misinformation. Many people judge officers based on headlines, personal biases, or past experiences with authority. Unfortunately, this often leads to officers being treated unfairly in situations where they shouldn't have to justify their profession. 2. Five Common Examples of Discrimination Against Police Officers 1. Being Denied Service or Treated Poorly at Businesses Example: A restaurant refuses to serve uniformed officers or intentionally provides bad service because of their profession. Why It's a Problem: Officers deserve basic respect as customers, yet many face hostility in public spaces. 2. Friends or Family Making Anti-Police Comments Example: A family member constantly shares anti-police rhetoric or refuses to engage with you because of your job. Why It's a Problem: It creates tension and division within personal relationships, making officers feel unwelcome in their own families. 3. Social Media Backlash or Harassment Example: Posting about your career or a pro-law enforcement stance results in negative comments, online attacks, or even doxxing. Why It's a Problem: Officers have the right to express themselves, but many face hostility online simply for their profession. 4. Struggles in the Dating World Example: Some people refuse to date a cop because they assume officers are aggressive, untrustworthy, or emotionally unavailable. Why It's a Problem: These false stereotypes limit social opportunities and make building relationships harder. 5. Workplace Discrimination from Leadership or Peers Example: Officers who stand up for their values or voice concerns about policies are sometimes ostracized, overlooked for promotions, or retaliated against. Why It's a Problem: It creates a toxic work environment and discourages good officers from staying in the profession. 3. Five Ways to Combat Discrimination with Strength and Confidence 1. Stay Professional and Choose Your Battles Solution: If a business denies service, document the incident and choose whether to address it through official channels or walk away. Why It Works: Keeps you above the drama while ensuring accountability when needed. 2. Educate, But Don't Argue Solution: If family or friends misunderstand police work, offer facts and personal insights instead of debating. Why It Works: Informed discussions can shift misconceptions, but arguing rarely changes minds. 3. Set Boundaries Online and in Personal Life Solution: Be mindful of what you post, block toxic people, and don't engage in unnecessary social media battles. Why It Works: Protects mental health and personal safety while avoiding unnecessary conflicts. 4. Find a Strong Support System Solution: Surround yourself with like-minded friends, fellow officers, and supportive communities that respect your profession. Why It Works: Helps reduce stress and reminds you that you're not alone in these experiences. 5. Know When to Walk Away and When to Stand Up Solution: Choose when to push back on discrimination and when it's better to let it go and move forward. Why It Works: Keeps your energy focused on what matters instead of letting negativity drain you. 4. Why Officers Must Stay Resilient in Today's Climate Officers must learn how to navigate unfair treatment without letting it impact their confidence, integrity, or sense of purpose. The best response to discrimination is to remain professional, stay strong, and continue doing the job with honor. 5. Final Thoughts: The Bigger Picture While discrimination against officers is real, it does not define who you are. By staying grounded in your purpose, surrounding yourself with supportive people, and setting boundaries, you can thrive in your career and personal life. Listen now to learn how to handle discrimination with confidence, protect your peace, and continue serving with pride.

Advocating for yourself when experiencing harm in the workplace can be hard and confusing, but it can also open the door to something so much better. In this episode, Whitney sits down with Noris Chavarria, a queer, gay, Latino, consultant and coach to discuss Noris's experience with self-advocacy.In this powerful episode, Noris shares his experience feeling subject to harassment based on his sexual orientation and documented new diagnosis of ADHD. Facing an environment fraught with bullying, and where is request for reasonable accommodations were denied, Noris was compelled to take legal action and eventually leave his job.Noris opens up about the emotional toll of dealing with his workplace, the barriers he faced in seeking legal remedies, and the journey towards his newfound mission: empowering others who face similar struggles. He discusses the complexities of navigating employment law, even in California, and the importance of support programs for those feeling marginalized and unheard.Listeners will gain invaluable insights into Noris's path to advocacy and entrepreneurship through his consulting and coaching business, Noris Knows, which serves LGBTQ+ individuals and people of color. Whitney and Noris also explore the broader implications of systemic workplace issues on mental and physical health and the importance of recognizing personal autonomy.This episode is part of our anti-discrimination mini-series and shines a light on the lack of legal protections in workplace bullying cases and the various barriers people experience when attempting to find support and legal protection. Although what Noris experienced may not amount to legal harassment or discrimination (we don't know), his experiences led to workplace trauma that had very real impact on his health, mental health, and his capacity to work in the environment. Part of the trouble is meeting a legal standard of proof required to show harassment or discrimination occurred. For this reason, when possible it can be helpful to speak to advocates and attorneys to learn about how we can best support ourselves, and to get help navigating these systems. Make sure to tune in to episodes 49 and 51 to learn more about how advocates and attorneys can help, and what to do to prepare for this type of experience.

We're kicking off the second season of the Curl Code by sharing a vulnerable, illuminating, sometimes hilarious and alwways incredible conversation from the launch party of the show last year. This live event brought together curlies and non-curlies of different generations and backgrounds to discuss lived experiences of having curly hair. Regardless of what else we might not have in common, we discovered funny and not-so-funny stories of hair trauma, struggle, and finally, embrace that revealed to us the things we share, and helped us learn about what's changed--and still needs to change--to allow all of us to live as our most authentic selves and embrace our curly crowns. Our non-curly allies helped us understand their own experiences and limitations, and even our wavy and swavy friends got a little reassurance that there is a place for them in the the curl universe too!  This conversation exemplifies the openness, authenticity and healing we stand for in this show, and at the Curly Oasis salon and education platform. We hope you'll find solidarity, companionship, and discovery in this show, and realize that whatever you hair trauma or curl experience may be, you are not alone! Continue your curly hair styling and education journey on our Instagram! Links/more: The CROWN Act: The CROWN Act, which stands for “Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair,” is currently being adopted on a state by state basis to ban hair-based discrimination at schools and workplaces.

Justice for Reyzl: Standing up to LGBTQ Workplace Discrimination Host: Noah Parrish, Gender Justice Communications Director Guest: Brittany Stewart, Gender Justice Senior Staff Attorney In August 2024, Gender Justice and co-counsel Wanta Thome PLC filed a discrimination lawsuit against the Academy of Holy Angels, a Catholic high school in Richfield, Minnesota, and the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis after they effectively terminated Reyzl Grace, a staff librarian, when she came out as trans. Reyzl Grace's story highlights the importance of ensuring that no employer in Minnesota has carte blanche to discriminate against employees simply because of who they are.   We believe the school violated the Minnesota Human Rights Act (MHRA) by refusing to allow Grace, who served as a secular librarian at the school, to reapply for her position on the basis of gender identity and sex. While the MHRA does permit limited exemptions on religious grounds, the Legislature never intended for these exemptions to apply to secular employees. In this episode of The Gender Justice Brief, Reyzl Grace's attorney, Brittany Stewart, outlines our case seeking justice for her: Background and context on Reyzl Grace's case Grace v.

(AURN News) – In a candid revelation, former legendary WTHR-TV main news anchor Andrea Morehead is sharing her journey as a Black woman in the television industry, shedding light on the challenges she faced during her 21-year tenure at the Indianapolis station. Morehead has launched a new YouTube series titled "My Silence is Not for Sale," where she courageously details instances of gaslighting, hostile treatment, abuse, and more, with the aim of empowering others who may have faced similar experiences. “I really feel the weight of my traumatic past, finally being overshadowed by my sincere desire to use this form to save others,” she said in the first episode. “I know there are millions of people who are exhausted, we are tired of being exhausted by toxicity in the workplace. In fact, when it was time to return to the workplace full-time post-COVID, many of us were like, 'No thank you,' because maybe you realize you didn't want to put up with the microaggressions, the gaslighting, the lies, the disparate treatment in the workplace,” she added. The veteran journalist, renowned for her Emmy and Murrow awards, addresses the weight of her traumatic past in the series' inaugural episode. Amidst the revelations, Morehead reflects on the broader issue of workplace toxicity.  The former news anchor took legal action against WTHR and its owner, Tegna, filing a discrimination lawsuit in 2021. By sharing her story, she underscores and sheds light publicly on the systemic challenges faced by far too many Black professionals in the local television news industry. Through "My Silence is Not for Sale," Morehead emerges as a powerful advocate for workplace equity, aiming to inspire change and provide a platform for those who have been silenced.  To learn more visit: mysilenceisnotforsale.com.

Balancing work and personal life is possible with the right strategies, such as documenting arrangements made regarding personal obligations. By building strong relationships with your colleagues and managers, you can create a network of support that can help you navigate difficult situations. Additionally, by presenting yourself in a professional and competent manner, you can earn the respect of your colleagues and make it more likely that they will listen to your concerns.

Let's Talk Supply Chain
331: Women in Supply Chain, Sylena Urbanoski

Let's Talk Supply Chain

Play Episode Listen Later Apr 2, 2023 43:40


In today's episode of Women In Supply Chain, I'm joined by the multi-talented Sylena Urbanoski: veteran, business founder, supply chain leader and start-up advisor. Sylena Urbanoski is a strategic and dynamic operations leader with over seven years' experience at the chief executive level, where she built profitable start-up divisions, grew business lines, managed deals, and streamlined operations. A veteran of the Canadian Armed Forces, Sylena also co-founded a company that sold at 10 times valuation within 24 month to Flexport. Today Sylena will be talking to us about her career so far; her entrepreneurial success; her long-time business partnership; and why she's so passionate about scaling start-ups. Plus, she'll be sharing her experiences as a woman in supply chain, as well as her words of advice for all of the women following in her footsteps.   SHOW SPONSOR:   Women fuel the success of some of the world's most successful businesses, yet barriers still exist. SAP is committed to supporting and elevating a new generation of women to profoundly lead and impact global supply chains and are proud to support the Women in Supply Chain Series and its efforts. Supply chains need to evolve from low-cost and optimized to risk-resilient and sustainable and SAP can help. SAP Digital Supply Chain solutions connect the entire process — design, planning, manufacturing, logistics, maintenance, and service; connecting your supply chains to the rest of your business and all your contextual data; supporting your efforts in alleviating risk in your supply chains. SAP is the market leader in enterprise application software and for the last 50 years has been helping companies to run better. Find out more at sap.com/scm   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [10.16] Sylena's career journey and how a road trip with a friend led to a life-changing business and lifelong partnership. “We went on a road trip and by the end of the trip we had the whole business plan sorted, and a vision about what we wanted to build. We found some investment backing, and jumped into it!” [13.26] The vision behind Sylena's first business, and its successful sale to Flexport. “Customs in Canada are so far behind, and we went through the journey of what would it take to start digitizing and creating an environment where we could re-employ amazing women who weren't staying in the industry, because it didn't support their family and work/life balance.” [17.46] Sylena's experience working with Flexport, the next steps in her career journey, and her long-time business partnership with Cindy Christensen. “I love building start-ups, I'm passionate about scaling them.” [19.59] How and why supply chain has changed for women in the last decade, and the work that still needs to be done. “Women in the supply chain industry spend so much of our careers fighting for any breath in the room… and it used to be that there were so few women in that room that it was so hard to partner up with other women because there was so little air to take.” [22.26] From finance to the military to supply chain, Sylena's experience across multiple male-dominated environments, and her experience of strong, supportive women. “Every room I've ever been in as an adult has been male-dominated… it's better now, but it's nowhere near as good as it needs to be.” [25.15] The industry areas that Sylena would like to see changed for women. “The industry doesn't create opportunities… there is no unifying place where continued education and promotion opportunities exist.” “We spent so long finding any available space in that room, we really haven't, as women in this industry, embraced the opportunity to step in and take the space we deserve.” [30.40] What the future holds for Sylena. “If you look at everybody else that's trying to solve supply chain from a tech perspective, they're all looking at it from a freight perspective. But the only one unifying factor about supply chain… is that every shipment touches a customs broker.” [32.49] Sylena's words of advice for leadership, and women in the industry. “Find community first, and lean into it.” [35.35] What excites Sylena the most about the future of supply chain, and her advice for jumping in. [38.11] Sylena's biggest top tip for women in supply chain.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   You can connect with Sylena over on LinkedIn.

Discrimination in the workplace is a pattern of behavior that singles out an employee or group of employees for unfair and/or unequal treatment based on specific protected characteristics. Harassment is unpleasant and unwanted behavior that is deliberate and consistent. There are Federal, State, and local laws that protect certain classes of individuals from unwanted harassment and discrimination in the workplace.

Let's face it: Work can be complicated. Layoffs are widespread, and workplace issues like harassment and discrimination can be daunting. But then there are also less scandalous topics like non-compete agreements and new offer contracts. This week on LEAVE YOUR MARK, I talk with Peter Rahbar, my friend and personal attorney, and we unpack all of this. Peter is the founder of The Rahbar Group and has represented individuals and major companies in nearly every aspect of employment law and other workplace issues. After almost twenty years of representing major international corporate clients in high-profile matters, including over a decade as the chief employment attorney for Hearst, Peter has established a boutique employment practice representing individuals, including C-Suite executives, media personalities, and other professionals working in finance, media, sports, real estate, fashion, and tech. Peter has a unique perspective on workplace dynamics and trends due to the broad scope of his practice. He has real-time insight into hiring trends through his extensive experience in the negotiation and drafting of employment agreements, talent agreements, and separation agreements, and his specialty of representing individuals in negotiating non-competition agreements. Peter is also a tireless advocate for equal treatment in the workplace – representing and advising individuals in the negotiation, investigation, litigation, and mediation of employment disputes, including employment discrimination and harassment claims. Peter is based in New York City. He received his undergraduate degree from Duke University and his law degree from Georgetown University Law Center. Pete and I dive into every major employment law issue in this episode and cover their do's and don'ts. This is the episode you will save and play on repeat. The big topics we cover are layoffs, non-compete agreements, pay transparency laws, how to deal with harassment in the workplace, and so much more. *This episode will provide commentary and tactical career advice from a workplace expert. It is not intended to provide legal advice or counsel.
