In this episode of How We Work, recorded live at Workhuman Live, we sit down with Fadjanie Cadet, an HR and inclusion leader, speaker, and author to explore what it means to navigate the workplace as a first‑generation professional.

Fadjanie shares how first‑gen identity often comes with unspoken challenges: learning workplace norms without a roadmap, navigating impostor syndrome, and carrying responsibilities that aren’t always visible at work. Through the lens of intersectionality, she reflects on how organizations can unintentionally overlook this experience and what thoughtful inclusion can look like in practice.
