Description

“Intersectionality”, coined by professor Kimberlé Crenshaw in 1989, refers to the ways all aspects of our identity intersect and interact. Join the whole What Rules team as they dive into what intersectionality means to them and how understanding your unique identities can help create opportunities for yourself and your community.
“Take a look at yourself, take a look at who you are and what policies are actually not supporting who you are, what laws are not supporting who you are, what is society’s unconscious bias about who you are?” – Dr. Merary Simeon

After spending almost two years interviewing multicultural women in the c-suite, entrepreneurs, authors and speakers, we’ve seen a running theme of how women are shattering the glass ceiling and breaking through the concrete ceiling: rule-breaking. But what rules are we talking about and why do they exist? That’s what we explore in the What Rules!? podcast. You’ll learn our six guiding principles for multicultural women looking to outsmart the game to advance their career. Founded by HR executives specializing in diversity and inclusion and talent management, Rosa Santos (co-host), and Merary Simeon (co-host), and executive coach Alisa Manjarrez (producer).
