What Do White Men Know That We Don't Know?
from Unshackled Leadership: A Lantern for Black Women
66% of white men in leadership have an executive coach. Executive coaching is a valuable tool that enables high-potential leaders to enhance their skills and mindset. By addressing areas such as battling the inner critic, leading others, navigating conflict, and effective communication. Executive coaching equips leaders with the necessary tools to excel in their roles.So why is it that 66% of white men in leadership have an executive coach and only 9% of Black women in the same positions have one? In Episode 10 of my podcast, I talk to Dr. Towanna Burrous about why Black women shy away from hiring a coach and the dangers to come by making that decision. Towanna Burrous is a distinguished best-selling author, ICF professional certified coach (PCC), and the President of the CoachDiversity Institute, based in Washington, DC. With a mission to empower diverse communities through executive coaching, Dr. Burrous is a sought-after executive coach whose expertise has been honed through 28 years of experience in the federal government and private sector.
