A troublesome and persistent issue facing organizations today is their inability to develop and promote women to leadership positions where they can play a key role in the decision-making process.But as my guest in this episode of my <a href="https://tanveernaseer.com/lbc/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Leadership Biz Cafe podcast</a> points out, this doesn’t mean there aren’t things women can do to make the case in their organization to promote them into leadership roles.Shelmina Abji is a former IBM vice-president, philanthropist, angel investor, and active gender and racial equality advocate.I invited Shelmina to join me on my show not only to share her inspiring story of growing up in a rural village in Tanzania to being one of the first visible minority women to hold the position of vice-president at IBM, but to talk about her book, “<a href="https://amzn.to/47ICM92" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Show Your Worth: 8 Intentional Strategies For Women To Emerge As Leaders At Work</a>."Just as she does in her book, Shelmina shares a powerful, empowering, and honest message for how women – and in particular visible minority women – can address the current obstacles – both within the organizations and themselves – that impede their ability to, as Shelmina puts it, “create higher levels of value at your maximum capacity.”<hr> Hosted on Acast.
