Striving While Black is a personal reflection, a playbook and a portable mentor for African- Americans and others who didn't and don't have the advantage of trailblazers who have gone before them in forging a successful corporate career. Success in corporate America is based on not only what you know--but, as importantly, who you know and who will sponsor you, share information with you as well as advocate for you. This book shares in a straight talking manner what those who feel marginalized in corporate need to do for themselves to be seen as competitive and value added.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
CAREER. After enjoying a rewarding career in non-profits and local politics, Mr. Salter spent 22 years with Kraft Foods, where he rose to become Senior Vice President of Human Resources. He attributes his success to a strong work ethic, a commitment to excellence and to the employees he served, and unwavering candor. This is what Mr. Salter has to say about being a SVP at Kraft. “I had finally earned a seat at the table of power where employees’ career trajectories were determined. There, I became an advocate for any talented employee being overlooked, sidelined or derailed. I was especially vigilant in advocating for Black leaders who would otherwise have been left on the cutting floor after placement decisions had been made. I used my power – softly, but with a big stick of knowledge, courage, commitment and compassion.” TODAY, Mr. Salter is a writer, a frequently sought-after speaker on the topic of leadership, a coach to senior and emerging executives, and a tireless advocate for Blacks in leadership.
