Andrea Belfanti, CEO, International Society of Hospitality Consultants (ISHC) interviewed by Lan Elliott, DEI Advisors

Andrea shares how she handles those negative voices we all have in our heads and offers specific advice on creating inclusive workplaces.  When dealing with a challenge, she describes how she thinks through the problem and comes up with a plan – and a back-up plan.  She also explains how she’s successfully asked for a raise or promotion, and how she advocates for other women and underrepresented groups.  Andrea also offers a unique approach to networking and how to follow up in a genuine way.
