Tara Jaye Frank: How to Help Your Team Have It All
When you understand the kind of life you want to live, it makes sense to help your team do the same. This week equity strategist Tara Jaye Frank joins me to discuss why CEOs are so passionate about bringing inclusivity and equity into the workplace and the common challenges that keep them from experiencing real change. Listen in as Tara and I discuss having a bias for action, the importance of assessing before creating a plan, how scarity impacts honest conversation, and how to frame conversations with your team in “four dimensions” to carry greater results.
“The first step about way making is really having a heart to be part of the solution and then learning what it takes to actually get there.” – Tara Jaye Frank
Tara Jaye Frank is an expert, thought leader and pioneer in the D,E&I space. Her book, The Waymakers: Clearing the Path to Workplace Equity with Competence and Confidence, is coming out in May 3. Tara has recently been cited in articles covering topics including President Biden’s announcement to appoint the first Black SCOTUS in Business Insider, her LinkedIn post on the Brian Flores issues which got a lot of comments and traction, 10 black female entrepreneurs on how we can all be more inclusive on HerMoney and what corporate America should do now in Forbes, to name a few.
About the Waymakers:
Beyond strategies and systems, what really drives workplace equity and inclusion? The truth is that all historically excluded professionals who have broken through to greater levels of belonging and achievement have succeeded not by systems change alone, but because influential leaders chose to remove barriers, open doors, and guide them toward their goals. The bottom line? Someone made a way for them. Using case studies, data, and evocative storytelling, Frank outlines how leaders with power and position can clear the path to workplace equity by:
- discovering where you are on your equity journey today.
• embracing the steps required to achieve true equity.
• understanding what your employees really want from you.
• developing a lens for the big barriers and intervention opportunities.
• connecting the dots between meeting talent needs and unlocking company value.
• recognizing when Waymaking matters most.
• showing up―every day―as a leader who makes a way.
