Join us for our next Untapped Leadership Core Session as we focus on understanding ourselves as a leadership practice.

Whether you are aware of it or not, code-switching happens every day in the workplace, yet it's rarely ever discussed. What is it exactly, and why is it so prevalent? More importantly, how do we create work environments that eliminate the need for code-switching and allow us all to communicate in our authentic and preferred style?

In this session, we'll answer these questions and more.  We will:

• Define what code-switching is and isn't

• Unpack the common causes of code-switching in the workplace

• Share our own examples of code-switching to connect broader experiences to our own stories

• Identify strategies to minimize the need for code-switching while maximizing underlying lessons in effective communication

About Jenny

Jenny is a leadership facilitator, author, and Founder of Untapped Leaders. Jenny has worked with 500+ leaders ranging from established executives at large corporations to high school students beginning their leadership journeys -- witnessing the untapped capacities across all stages in career paths.

Interested in digging deeper into the limitations of current leadership rhetoric and bringing in the voices of the often-unrecognized leadership contributions of BIPOC and marginalized leaders, Jenny launched Untapped Leaders to create a space for those contributions to be named, validated, and amplified. Having studied and facilitated leadership frameworks for the past two decades, Jenny realized most all frameworks are not developed by nor for leaders of color. As a result, Jenny designed the Untapped Leadership framework.
