Centering Black Women’s Voices: A Leadership Strategy for Creating an Anti-Racist Workplace
The individual and institutional impact of being a Black woman leader in contexts that do not nurture Black womanhood is often harmful, assaultive, masked and oppressive. In this session, we share insights from our retrospective report Reflections 2020. Presenters will lift up testimonials from Black women professionals; provide effective practices for navigating the workplace; and offer possibilities for integrating culturally responsive strategies to establish and maintain a more inclusive workplace. Participants will be invited to engage, share, and contribute based on wisdom they’ve gained from their own experiences.
8 Weeks of Self-Discovery
What inspires you? What brings you joy? How do you cope with loss? We will journey together and come out on the other side with increased self-awareness and personal insight.

Panels For Change

Together, they identifying ways to promote inclusion, bridge gaps and design healthy workplaces.
This program can be facilitated by a Black-identifying woman at the host company, or she is welcome to participate as a panelist.
Voices Rise: Black Women in Leadership
BlackFemaleProject delivers this critical workshop series both inside and outside of corporate organizations.
The three part series explores how to use lessons learned from intersectional lived experiences and center the voices of those who navigate complex social structures to teach us how to lead with love, and empathize with those who represent difference in our lives? How can we use our voices to counter pervasive racism and sexism in schools, outside of school, in the workplace, and beyond?
By elevating positive models and affirming gender identity (in multiple forms), together we will challenge race and gender biases by learning new ways of thinking about others.

Attendees will talk through, listen, reflect, and respond to gain insight, create empathy, and center Blackness in an effort to celebrate and begin to understand how Black women and girls can and do thrive.

Given the climate nationally (and internationally) regarding Black Excellence while hashtags like #BlackGirlsRock! #BlackGirlMagic and #MeToo exist to lift up Black women's voices and to accelerate healing, BlackFemaleProject asks how can we use our voices to counter pervasive racism and sexism in the workplace? Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the lived experiences listen, reflect, and respond in order to challenge race and gender biases by learning new ways of thinking about others.
