Join our founder, Frank Velásquez Jr., as he presents a new session titled: Leading Through The Intersections. It will be a journey into the heart of intersectionality, showing how our mix of identities – like race, gender, and background – shapes the way we see and interact with the world. It's about first getting real with ourselves, recognizing our own stories and biases, and learning how to create spaces where everyone feels empowered to be their authentic selves. Frank will help attendees do a bit of self-exploration so that we can tackle the tough stuff together. We will discover ways to step back and step up. Join us as we shake up the white space and make it an equitable space where the global majority can lead with authenticity, courage, and joy!
