Heading into an interesting meeting with our new CEO and I’m excited about it. All the POC, especially the women of color, are excited that she’s here and what she’s done so far. I’m looking forward to discussing the toxic aspects of our work culture, especially when it comes to the treatment of POC. As a leader in my organization, I find it important to use my voice in this situations.

Any advice on how I should approach this conversation?

Being solutions-oriented rather than problems-first is an attribute I prize in people I’m meeting with for the first time. It can be so overwhelming to walk into a crowd of entirely new faces. I definitely gravitate towards the problem-solvers first.
