Standard

Awesome. Inspiring is this talk. Yet very interesting and disappointing. Tim & I are both are diversity trainers and actually this is our story, It’s how we met based on our passions and training people about culture. Diversity training is at the center of our hearts, so we share this video in all good conscience and to encourage up a new level of thought life.

Mellody Hobson is senior vice president and director of marketing at Ariel Investments, LLC She began as an intern and rose to become the firm’s top executive leader. In 2000, she ascended to become the president of Ariel, a Chicago investment firm that manages over $9 billion in assets. It is also one of the largest African American-owned money management and mutual fund companies in the United States.

Enjoy.

“If we can learn to deal with our discomfort and just relax into it,  we will have a  better life….we have to be color brave. “ Mellody Hobson
