The Climb

…is committed to substantially increasing the number of women of color in corporate and nonprofit managerial and leadership positions.

In the United States…

Almost half (41%) of women of color want to be top executives, nearly double the rate of their White female counterparts. According to a joint study from Lean In and McKinsey & Company on gender diversity in the workplace, women of color are far less likely to be promoted, receive career development training, or gain equal access to mentorship and sponsorship opportunities from a manager or executive. The Climb seeks to reverse these trends by delivering training and professional development specific to the challenges and pain points of women of color aspiring to leadership and executive positions.

Our Impact

The Climb brings a wealth of knowledge, experience, passion, and cultural sensitivity, providing a robust platform and a safe space that actively supports the professional development of women of color, propelling them to advance in their careers and reversing the trend of underrepresentation in leadership.

The Boardroom

The Boardroom is not your typical training and professional development program; it’s a dynamic catalyst for the empowerment of women of color who aspire to become leaders. The Boardroom is dedicated to tailoring its training to address the unique challenges and pain points faced by women of color in the professional world.

Our approach goes beyond conventional topics that can be readily found elsewhere. We dive deep into areas crucial for success, such as navigating office politics, forming a powerful professional advisory board, cultivating a supportive network of fellow women of color managers and executives, and recognizing and recovering from the telltale signs of burnout. We’re not just about training; we’re about transformation. Join us in The Boardroom, where we’re reshaping the future of leadership, one woman of color at a time.
