Today's episode features Andrea Henderson, an international Talent Professional with over 15 years of experience designing and leading diversity recruiting initiatives, managing onsite and virtual talent acquisition and global mobility teams, driving execution of global talent planning, talent management, and high potential development and executive coaching programs. Andrea not only offers insight into her own career journey, but she gives fantastic insight as a talent/human resources professional into challenges that she has seen black women face in the workforce, and how she advises overcoming them. She breaks down leveling up from entry-level, mid-level, to executive level, the importance of connecting with colleagues outside of work hours (and how to do so strategically), and the importance of reciprocity in mentor/mentee relationships. Andrea also gives us details into her own business, Mint Green Info, which essentially puts the voice and advice of an HR professional in your back pocket.
