The Right Fit – ” Fitting IN” means to be accepted in a group of people as a member of that group and usually has the connotation that something has been given up or changed in order for that acceptance to occur. It also means that you don’t stand out from the average behavior and appearance of the group.
Having a successful corporate career is not as intuitive and routine as one might think, particularly for professionals of color. The need to constantly prove oneself to colleagues and bosses is just part of the challenge faced by diverse professionals. Talent alone will not guarantee success. It’s the effective navigation of the corporate culture that will yield the greatest results for diverse talent. Being assigned empathetic mentors within organizations can guide the journey of diverse professionals as they traverse the corporate environment.“Living a life of service enriches us all.”
