  • EP25: Navigating the Promotion Process
    Jul 22 2024
    This episode of the 'Black Office Unlocked' podcast is dedicated to empowering minority employees within the U.S. Federal Government. We delve into the labyrinth of career advancement in the federal sector. Navigating this intricate system can be challenging, especially for minority employees facing additional hurdles. However, with the right strategies and a clear understanding of the promotion process, success is within reach.
    Drawing inspiration from diversity advocates like Nelson Mandela, who said, "It always seems impossible until it's done," we aim to equip you with the knowledge and tools needed to confidently chart your career course. Reflecting on James Clear's wisdom, "A lack of self-awareness is poison. Reflection and review is the antidote," we'll explore the importance of honest self-reflection, strategic planning, and execution.
    Embrace Jay-Z's mentality of seeing yourself as a valuable entity within your organization and Tupac Shakur's call for active participation in diversity initiatives. Remember Nas's line, "The world is yours," and Langston Hughes's encouragement to "Hold fast to dreams." Stay focused, stay motivated, and stay unlocked!

    Jul 8 2024

Successfully navigating and embracing calculated risks can lead to better opportunities, personal growth, and increased impact in one's career. As black and non-majority civil servants we tend to generally be risk-averse. Much of this may just be cultural and can just come from self-preservation. Which is understandable because at the end of the day, we just trying to live right? But Its my take that we are so powerful as a people that we can do more than just enough to survive but we can shift our mindset so that we can not just survive but thrive so that we can arrive. In todays discussion we are going to discuss few concepts around managing Risk that will empower you and reveal the person you are and that is invincible.
