ART of Feminine NEGOTIATION 299: Breaking Barriers And Building Board Power
The boardroom has long been the ultimate fortress of corporate power—a room where the few decide the future for the many. But for women and underrepresented leaders, the door to that room has often been locked from the inside.
In this episode, Cindy Watson and Keith Dorsey dive into the tactical blueprint for breaking those barriers, securing your seat, and—most importantly—transforming the boardroom once you arrive. Keith Dorsey, a powerhouse researcher, author, and advisor who has dedicated his career to optimizing governance through diversity. As the founder of The Boardroom Journey, Keith doesn't just talk about representation; he provides the tactical roadmap for leaders of all backgrounds to claim their seats and, more importantly, transform how those boards operate.
In this episode, you will learn:
-
What people most misunderstand about the gap, how the gap is created and maintained.
-
What are these barriers and which barrier is considered to be the most underestimated.
-
The outline of visible and invisible barriers that impact women's board readiness and how can we strategically navigate them.
-

Mindset shift for women to stop playing small when it comes to the boardroom.
-
And many more!
