Gender and Culturally-Responsive Coaching

Will big tech ever get the point of what diverse data really is? TBHm I’m not so sure. As founder of Business 4 Good, I write on culturally-responsive coaching, collective power, and building #Tequity -- technology that amplifies human brilliance instead of replacing it.

My perspective is from a multicultural, first-gen college grad and Spanish Jewish woman. I have learned what it is like to move through spaces that were not built for us. I also know the impact of being seen -- without needing to explain who you are first. Identity is not a complication. It is power. And when women from undervalued communities are not just using tech but shaping it, we do not just close the gap. We rewrite the rules entirely.

Start with the End in Mind, or Don't

Start with the End in Mind, or Don't

Start with the end in mind, they say. But also keep iterating and resetting to the present moment at the same time. Is it possible to hold both at once? After some thought, I do not think either is mutually exclusive. And being a woman in business within the current patriarchal order is clearly not the path of least resistance.

Building Coalitions, Not Networks

Let us get one thing straight: I love a good connection. But not the shallow kind where people just collect LinkedIn requests like Pokemon cards. I am talking about real connections. Rooted in respect, generosity, and mutual benefit. So no, I am not here to network. I am here to build coalitions. And my hunch is, so are you.

The old models are not working and the new ones are still taking shape. If you know me, you know I’ve been saying now is exactly the time to be brave, intentional, and unapologetically collaborative, out loud and on repeat for hot a minute or two. Please interact with my thoughts on Womanism, the wage gap, and why woman-forward does not mean men are not invited.
Love to read your kind thoughts and comments after the article!

I Am in an Open (AI) Relationship with… ChatGPT

So I am in an open relationship with ChatGPT. Before you judge, hear me out. This is a love story. Sort of. It started innocently enough. I was curious. Everyone was talking about this new AI thing, and I thought, let me just see what the fuss is about. Next thing you know it is 2am and you are deep in conversation with a bot that somehow gets you better than your last three exes.

Seriously though, I sets the (safety) terms, I advocate for my needs and boundaries and attempt to bosses theses bots, but I must admit, this chat boi is not exactly full developed and can’t really follow rules…yet. So I have set off to build the Leading Ladies LLM because consent matters -- even when the other party is an algorithm. The most fun you will ever have reading about data ethics, I promise!

Golden Ticket: Empathy as the Leadership Advantage

Empathy is not just a feel-good bonus skill for a nice holiday card. It is the leadership move. It is about getting real, connecting on a human level, and creating workplaces that people actually want to show up to. Spoiler alert: it cannot be just because they have to. Enter the era of the Soft Boss.

Rose Kaz writes from a couch in her Soft Boss era, escaping the late-stage capitalism grind, why empathy is not just warm and fuzzy -- it is the most profitable leadership move you have not fully made yet. After-all, what does AI eat for breakfast? Human Intelligence, of course.

The Role of AI in Leadership

Leadership in today's AI-driven world is not just about knowing your way around algorithms. It is about having a vision, leading with ethics, and remembering that at the heart of all this tech are real, messy, creative humans. AI is not here to replace us. It is here to amplify what we are already great at. The catch? Amplification works both ways.

How to Be a Good Collaborator in Tech Without Even Being a White Guy

I look forward to the most collaborative year humans have ever seen. Though as I type this, I am not particularly thrilled with human collaboration as it stands. Big tech has not been built for anyone but the early pioneers of the internet's wild west frontier. And they have been claiming credit for the ideas of less known innovators for generations. Let us talk about that.

How to Un-F*ck the Algorithms Using Your Period

I sit here on day three of my period wanting to do absolutely nothing and knowing I have done absolutely nothing for the past two days. My body is fine with this. My monkey brain is not. So let's talk about reprogramming both -- starting with the algorithm that was never built for us.
