Nadia Bennett, the founder and CEO of When Brown Girls Lead, talks about the importance of leadership in developing anti-racist educational programs and schools. This conversation dives into Nadia's lived experiences as a student, educator and black woman. It raises many questions: how we can challenge the status quo in education, create psychologically safe and brave workplaces for women of colour, and what the future of equity, diversity, and inclusion in education could look like?
With over fifteen years of experience serving school districts, Nadia Bennett has successfully overseen the processes of change management, teacher and leader coaching, diversity, equity, & inclusion and building anti-racist school environments. As a school turnaround strategist for multiple charter organizations that serve communities of color, her work has produced consistent increases in student achievement, staff retention, and college acceptance rates. Now, as an Executive Leader, she supports districts both nationally and internationally.
