Keynote by Speaker Mari Carmen Pizarro Jumping the Curve for Hispanic Success
While the Hispanic population is a growing force in the United States, and well represented in the consumer and labor force, we are disproportionately underrepresented in top leadership. We are the second largest racial and ethnic group in America, second to White non-Hispanics, and yet we occupy only 4% of the top leadership positions in Fortune 500 organizations. How can we empower Hispanic leaders to take ownership of their success trajectory?
In Mari Carmen’s research, she has found that what matters is not just achieving that one peak of high performance (also known as climbing your current S-curve). Instead, she explores the equal importance of the moves you must make on the way to your next level of success; in other words, continually striving to jump to your future S-curve.
Mari Carmen reveals vital insights by including :
- What do the biggest and brightest miss and why traditional long-term business planning won’t help you find the insights that are fundamental to high performance.
- Why you must add new players to your team before the performance starts to wane. When things are good. (This miss is very evident in the political realm.)
- How to emulate the modus operandi of businesses that succeed with one re-invention after another, through both good times and bad.
- The gift of diversity of thought in leadership roles for companies as a whole.
