Be Your Own Cheerleader :The Power of Self Advocacy for Underrepresented Voices
Training overview
There’s a gap in your innovation pipeline. And it’s not about talent. For AAPI professionals and other underrepresented groups, speaking up at work isn’t just a skill gap, it’s a complex interweaving of invisible cultural and systemic barriers that demand people choose between authenticity and advancement.
