Chad Sanders, a former tech executive and entrepreneur, says that
people of color, especially Black men like him, often feel the need
to assimilate to white corporate culture. They learn to code switch
and downplay their race. But Sanders realized a few years into his
career that, by trying to fit in, he was failing to leverage the
strengths he'd developed growing up as a minority in the United
States. After digging into the stories of successful Black leaders,
he discovered some common threads to their leadership styles,
including empathy, resilience and creative thinking, and he has
advice for rising Black executives who want to put those attributes
to work as well as the organizations who employ them. Sanders is
the author of "Black Magic: What Black Leaders Learned from Trauma
and Triumph."
