Examining authenticity in the workplace for women of color
(Black PR Wire) Atlanta, GA – On October 13th, the “Is It Me?” Conference will take place at the historic ZuCot Art Gallery in downtown Atlanta, inviting women of color to engage in a powerful conversation about authenticity, identity, and the unique challenges they face in professional settings.
The headline keynote speaker for this year’s event is the incomparable Janet M. Stovall, CDE, a renowned thought leader in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), whose groundbreaking TED Talks and corporate leadership have inspired millions to confront systemic racism and bias in the workplace. Stovall, currently the head of DEI at The NeuroLeadership Institute, will deliver a deeply insightful presentation on how women of color can reclaim their authenticity in predominantly white or male-dominated work environments.
The “Is It Me?” Conference promises a safe, welcoming space where women of color can reflect on their personal and professional journeys, share their experiences, and walk away with actionable strategies to navigate the complexities of workplace culture with confidence. “We created this conference to give women of color a platform to explore their experiences in a space where they feel seen and heard,” said Stevenson-Wright. “This year’s theme—authenticity—speaks directly to the heart of the struggles many face in trying to remain true to themselves while navigating bias and systemic inequities.”
Located in downtown Atlanta, ZuCot Art Gallery is one of the largest African American art galleries in the Southeast, making it the ideal backdrop for a conference focused on identity, culture, and empowerment. The gallery, known for its powerful exhibitions celebrating African American culture, will host the event amid artworks that echo themes of community and resilience.
