Every week, DEI Advisors brings you practical advice and insightful perspectives from hospitality industry leaders and other accomplished professionals with the goal to inspire future leaders and improve their career trajectories. Each interview highlights an advisor who shares inflection points of his/her career journey and lessons learned from overcoming challenges and taking risks. The interviews are full of useful tips on finding mentors and advocates, networking, continuous learning, overcoming "head trash" or ”imposter syndrome,” achieving work life harmony, and more.

The hospitality industry is diverse, but women and other under-represented groups continue to face a broken rung at the upper levels of management. DEI Advisors is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering personal success by sharing insights and learnings from industry leaders. While many companies are doing wonderful work in the areas of diversity, equity, and inclusion, individuals must also be responsible for their own personal growth and career aspirations.

 

Through interviews with industry leaders, we hope to share learnings to help you:

• Overcome the "Imposter syndrome" and "head trash"

• Become more effective in networking

• Triumph over structural barriers and other challenges

• Acquire sponsors, advocates, and mentors

• Find strength and resilience in the face of adversity

• Bring harmony to work life demands
