“The Model Black”: A new paradigm in black leadership
Why do so many black people in the workplace have to navigate power in a way that white people don’t? What causes self-silencing? How can leaders approach conversations about race in a positive way?
Barbara Banda, in conversation with John Higgins at Duke Corporate Education, reveals the thinking that led her to write The Model Black, and unveils insights from her candid research into the experience of black British leaders in organisations. She illustrates why she wants the book to be a starting point for a discussion about ways that people show up at work.
“Barbara provides the insights leaders need to have an open and honest dialogue around self-disclosure and what being black – and more importantly a black leader – in the workplace means. It is a must read for both black and white leaders responsible for managing, skilling, reskilling, and hiring talent to improve culture and create a true merit-based workplace.”
