Equitable Transformation with Nancy Gutierrez
Manage episode 412032047 series 3523863
We’ve all heard the stories of that young person who pulled themselves up by their bootstraps, made it out of that small town or that rough neighborhood, and moved to the big city to make something of themselves. That concept of “I made it out” is so prevalent that we accept the premise without much thought. In this episode, Nancy Gutiérrez, Lead Executive Officer & President of The Leadership Academy and co-author of the new book Stay and Prevail, questions the value of the "leave to succeed" mindset for people, community, and the workplace.
"When we realize how similar we are, we're able to advance work with perspectives that will help to do it in a faster, more productive, more enlightened way." - Nancy Gutiérrez
