Hello Summer!

Hello, SyzyGen community! Happy New Month, where we celebrate PRIDE, Juneteenth, Sickle Cell Awareness Day, and Caribbean Heritage Month


Today, I want to celebrate the power of identity-conscious leaders.

Those leaders understand who they are and bring their whole selves to the work they do with their teams. We discussed this excellently last month with Mayor Xay, B. Jae, Elizabeth Rodgers, and Linda Leung. Here is the link in case you missed it:



I learned about this theory when reading Hermina Ibarra's research on identity and leadership. It resonated with me as one of the many ways we show up as leaders. As the founder of SyzyGen, I firmly believe that embracing and leveraging the diversity of our identities can unlock excellence in leadership. Here are some thoughts:


✨ Our identities bring unique strengths and perspectives that enrich our leadership approach. When we recognize and leverage these strengths, we create a dynamic environment where innovation thrives, and individuals can fully contribute their talents.


✨ Embracing the intersectionality of identity fosters empowered teams. When people feel seen, valued, and supported, they become drivers of success.


✨ Identity-driven leadership creates a culture of inclusivity where everyone feels welcome and respected. By acknowledging and celebrating the diverse identities within our teams, we break down barriers and foster a sense of belonging.


✨ By advocating for diversity, equity, and inclusion, we contribute to a more just society and business landscape. Our organizations become beacons of progress, setting an example for others to follow.


Let's embrace the power of identity-conscious leadership, celebrate our differences, and create a workplace where excellence and inclusivity go hand in hand.
