• February 2019
Roquita Coleman-Williams explains why corporations should empower managers to be community activist and civic leaders. She uses her own personal story of resilience and leadership as an African American woman in the male-dominated transportation industry to show how civic leadership can lead to the diversity and inclusion modern companies are working towards. Managers who are engaged in servant leadership and have philanthropic responsibilities are more fulfilled and use problems-solving skills in civic space to add value for the organization.
