Thank you to all those who attended our event: How to excel in an organisation when you are in the minority.
We had a huge turnout to hear some great advice, tips and strategies on how to deal with microaggressions, bias and discrimination in the workplace. A big thank you to our panel of executive Coaches Suki Collins, Lisa Leonce, Sadia Salam, Marie Loney and Hira Ali who facilitated the webinar and shared all of their experiences so you can excel in the workplace as a minority.

“Very positive tips”

“Thanks for creating this space and webinar”
Sadia, makes a great point – I’ve had an experience of being fired because I stuck to my values. I was ok with that at the time. However, looking back though you never know how much racism contributed to the decision. But it doesn’t matter as she said, stick to your values and do what’s right for you
