Code Switching: Thriving While Black in Corporate America

Thank you for tuning in to the Middle Men Talk Show Today! Code Switching, Thriving While being black in Corporate America.  In 2019, there is a total of 2,200 billionaires in the world. Of that number, only 0.77% are black billionaires. Out of the Fortune 500 companies, there is only 4 that are black. In order to move up the corporate ladder, people of color have to remove or hide aspects of culture in order to succeed. Do black people have to change themselves to be successful in white corporate America? Do black women and men have different experiences working and gaining success in corporate America? Are companies diversity policies inclusive to black people? Do the average African American look down on those who code switch for work? Or talk white because of job and or upbringing?  Do other cultures have to code switch to be successful?

Let's hear from you!!
