Reflecting on this week – What a great day to be at the White House! On Monday, July 22nd, The BOW Collective broke barriers by meeting with top officials to discuss policies supporting Black women-owned businesses. Representing 200+ CEOs generating $1.4 BILLION in business revenue, this meeting marked a monumental step toward ensuring equity and inclusion in federal contracting. For the first time in history, SBA data reveals significant racial disparities in government spending on Black businesses. We believe that increased spending will create more jobs. Advocacy equals access, and together, we raised our voices to make a difference. Excited to join the equity discussion. hashtag#BOWBreaksBarriers hashtag#AdvocacyEqualsAccess hashtag#BlackWomenInBusiness hashtag#EquityAndInclusion hashtag#BOWatWhiteHouse hashtag#WomenEmpowerment hashtag#BusinessPhilanthropy hashtag#Sisterhood

Ivy Planning Group and Bradley Smith were excited to support our longtime client L'Oréal as they celebrated Pride month for an LGBTQ+ awareness session. Pride Month reminds us to advocate for the LGBTQ+ community and continue to create workplaces that value and push diversity, equity, and inclusivity. While Pride may only be a month, at Ivy we believe it’s imperative that organizations strive to create a workplace culture where everyone feels safe and respected each and every day! #DEI #PRIDE #LGBTQ+

Monica Goga and the Ivy Planning Group research team know and understand the importance of data collection when it comes to DEI commitment and action. Do you? Arming yourself with facts helps to address the myths and misconceptions of DEI in your organization. Do you have the data you need?

It's time to shift the narrative and embrace the multifaceted nature of leadership. When will we be comfortable boldly declaring that women rock?

Today is #EqualPayDay. This means that women had to work all of 2023 and through this day in 2024 to catch up to what men earned in 2023 alone. 🔹Women who work full time, year-round make 83 cents for every dollar earned by men. 🔹And when you include employees who only work part of the year or work part-time, women make just 73 cents for every dollar paid to men. 🔹The pay gap is even wider for Black women, Latinas, and Native American women. It adds up to thousands of dollars in lost income a year - and for some women, over a million dollars over a lifetime. In my new book #Unspoken it was important to me to have a chapter dedicated to #Negotiations in order to empower women, POC and anyone from margalizrd backgrounds with the tools to negotiate to get their worth. Here are a few tips on how to have informed negotiations for equal pay: 1. Ask the company to help you understand their compensation philosophy: there should be a clearly defined structure to how they pay employees. Understand what the top of each pay band is. 2. Do your own research: Research your value in the market to best understand the type of compensation you should expect based on role and experience. 3. Understand trade-offs: Financial compensation is not everything, think about non-financial benefits such as vacation time, stock options or transportation benefits. 4. TALK ABOUT SALARY. As shared in the quote below by Janet Crenshaw Smith from my book #Unspoken, knowledge is power and the more you talk about salary with mentors and peers the more you can advocate for yourself.
