Minda Harts is the CEO of ‘The Memo, LLC’ and author of The Memo: What Women of Color Need to Know to Secure a Seat at the Table. Today we talk about her need to leave the workplace better than she found it (especially for Black and Brown women), one thing leaders can do to signal that they welcome inclusion, and why you really must stop touching Black people's hair. Minda is full of insights for how the workplace can do better for women of color and she is working every day to close the empathy gap at work.
