August is National Black Business Month: The journey from being a good leader to becoming a great one involves continuous growth, self-reflection, and a commitment to excellence. Transitioning from bad to good is easier than going from good to great. By focusing on empathy, learning, patience, crafting a leadership vision, and embracing failure, you can craft your leadership in ways you never imagined.

In 2018, after 20 years of research and real-time case study 📚 (dating back to 1998) I produced a proposal to increase black representation in the wealth management industry.
