Let your life’s work be a beacon for change

  • Posted on Dec 24, 2023

Our life’s work can be can be more than a paycheck. I continue to joyfully navigate the realms of nonprofit, federal, and higherEd, and here’s what I’ve learned: our work must echo our values.

In federal roles, despite the red tape, I found a sense of purpose and, dare I say, a slice of job security. And guess what? Federal employees just landed a 5.2% raise โ€“ higher than what Iโ€™ve seen in many other sectors. Talk about recognition! ๐Ÿ“ˆ

But it’s not just about the paycheck. It’s about the impact. Progressive nonprofits are expanding their horizons, not just in their missions but in their #InclusiveLeadership. That’s how you serve humanity in all its vibrant multigenerational and multiracial hues. ๐ŸŒˆ

And higherEd? It’s been a battleground for truth against the violence of racism and oppression. I’ve seen it evolve from passive to fierce, safeguarding the right to educate freely and fearlessly. โœŠ We have had to push back today for the generations of tomorrow. To be a free people we need to be free to learn the truth.

So, to my fellow leaders in every sector:

โœ”๏ธ What steps are you taking to foster a multiracial, anti-oppression mindset?

โœ”๏ธHow will your organization champion truth and fight against oppression?

โœ”๏ธ What does #ValuesBasedLeadership look like for you?

Share your strategies, your successes, and even your struggles! When we align our work with our values, that’s when we truly transform the world.
