  • Today Kim and Wesley welcome Shalini Shybut. In recent years, non-profit organizations have worked very hard to hire leaders of color who reflect the communities they serve. Kim and Wesley discuss with Shalini the additional challenges and pressures faced by leaders of color at non-profit organizations, especially the "entitlement gap". Why do these leaders sometimes struggle to thrive? What can be done to help them succeed?
