“Over the past few years, companies made it their mission to commit to diversifying their boards and fostering a more inclusive culture. But, with women holding just 24% of senior leadership positions globally, and white people making up almost 80% of the American workforce, there is still work to be done,” said author Ashton Jackson for Make It Black<\/a>. “That’s why Lybra Clemons, chief diversity, inclusion and belonging officer at Twilio, works to build diverse representation at every level.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n“I think a lot of people thought it was just a more elevated term for diversity, equity inclusion. But as we’ve started to go through the process, we’re learning that anti-racism is different. DE&I are still very foundational and fundamental to work, but anti-racism is an active term where you are personally responsible. This is about self-awareness and taking full accountability of who you are. We are actively promoting equity and racial justice through consistent, deliberate decisions that we make.”<\/p>\n

“There’s the mistrust, people discredit you\u2026 you have to be the ultimate subject matter expert,” [Twilio] says. “And even when you are, people are still discrediting and doubting you. You have to work harder to gain that trust with your peer group. And so I find that I’ve had to use all kinds of tools and coaching to stay confident in who I am and know how to manage when people are constantly ripping away at you.”<\/p>\n
