Dear Boss Women Community,
Who is sitting at your table? This question has never been more critical, especially for women. Our tables—the spaces we share, the teams we build, the conversations we host—should reflect the world we live in. A world rich in diversity, experiences, and perspectives.
Diversity isn’t just a checkbox; it’s a necessity. When we invite different voices to the table, we’re opening ourselves up to new ways of thinking, solving problems, and growing. The more varied the perspectives, the more innovative the solutions. Women, in particular, benefit immensely when we surround ourselves with individuals who see the world through different lenses. This is how we evolve, both personally and professionally.
For far too long, many of our tables have been limited, shaped by a narrow scope of experiences. But the true power of women is unleashed when we embrace diversity in all its forms—race, background, age, sexual orientation, and beyond. It’s more than just representation; it’s about inclusion. It’s about ensuring that every voice is not only heard but valued.
When we prioritize diversity, we are building stronger, more resilient communities. We are making space for fresh ideas and challenging ourselves to grow beyond what we know. This is how we create lasting change. This is how we rise together.
So I encourage each of you to look at your own table. Who’s there? Who’s missing? Let’s continue to make room for those who bring something new, who push us out of our comfort zones, and who ultimately make us stronger. Diversity is our strength. Let’s make sure our tables reflect that truth.
In unity and growth,
