In episode 92 of the podcast, I speak with Flavilla Fongang, the Founder and CEO of Black Rise.
Join us as we discuss why as leaders, we need to stop focusing only on financial outcomes and also look at the greater impact we are making on the community and even the planet. In the era of cancel culture, we have to be more socially responsible if we want our organisation to succeed.
We also discussed why it is so important to invest in protecting your peace. There is power in getting comfortable saying no without explanation, and it is something that we all need to embrace more, particularly as leaders.
Key takeaways include:
● The importance of empowering black women in technology
● Why it’s not okay to be the only woman in the room
● What an entrepreneurial mindset really is
● The balance of business impact and leaving a legacy
● Knowing how much money you need to be happy
● Developing a solution mindset so that you can solve any problem
● Why you can’t let the naysayers stop you, and you should always trust your gut
● How the first step to climbing the pyramid is just taking the first step
Flavilla Fongang is a multi-award-winning serial entrepreneur and an international keynote speaker. She is the author of “99 Strategies to Get Customers”. She is also the founder of Global Tech Advocates – Black Women in Tech, the largest organisation of black professional women in tech.
