The Importance of Speaking Up

"I've learned so much from being in environments where I am the only," says Medupaacanola. "If you don't speak up, they're not going to hear your perspective and you're speaking on behalf of so many people who couldn't be in this room that makes you hear on your own" Her advice: Start small. Ask one person, be vulnerable. And if you'd like to learn more about my work and research on stress, diversity and organizations, check out my website, medupaacanolla.com.
