I have started a new book of my life. Most people focus on starting a new chapter, but this moment is different. I have changed my environment entirely. Allow me to catch you up…
After serving as a D&I subject matter expert during formative years, building strategies that led to hiring nearly 20,000 people, coaching professionals to reach their apex rank, facilitating the dynamic D&I transformation of a Consulting business, and creating fair and equitable hiring practices, I joined the mission to make work better for people.
I continue to awaken each morning believing in five words. “I will make a difference.”
I invite you to join me on the journey of intentional impact. When looking to make a difference, I encourage people to embrace 3 simple, yet powerful actions:
🥇 make yourselves available to others – particularly someone different
🥈 care enough to listen actively
🥉 offer perspective that can be actioned
As I say at the conclusion of many conversations, “Do something you’ll remember.” I certainly have, AND most importantly, continue to do so!
Many business leaders will avoid hiring recent graduates due to a lack of soft skills—which is all the more reason to invest in training them.
Gianna Prudente spoke to career coach Fredrick A. Scott about how younger workers can invest in their own upskilling.

“Our commitment to early in career not only grants us the competitive edge but kindles an environment ripe for dynamic collaboration. When we welcome emerging talent, early in career talent, and campus talent, we invigorate our teams with a vibrant exchange of ideas and approaches which push the boundaries of creativity. Why does that matter? Because the infusion of diverse viewpoints not only shapes our products but also enhances our ability to address complex challenges with more agility, paving the way for transformative solutions that stand as a testament to the power of cross-generational collaboration.” - Fredrick A.
