Episode 78: Deepa Purushothaman Is Asking Ladies to Get nFormation
Deepa Purushothaman is a former senior executive, a corporate inclusion visionary, and co-founder of nFormation, a company for #woc by #woc where they provide a brave, safe, new space for professional women of color. This is a first-of-its-kind community that is a vetted, membership-based technology platform for high-performing WOC that seeks to reimagine traditional power structures to not just help more WOC take their seat at the table but to change the way the table is formed.
Deepa’s book, The First, The Few, The Only-How Women of Color Redefine Power in Corporate America, will be published by HarperCollins Publishers in March 2022.
Prior to this, Deepa spent more than twenty years at Deloitte and was the first #indianamerican woman and one of the youngest people to make partner in the company’s history.
We discuss how it's time for all #woc to come together with our shared challenges to support one another, what it will really take to advance #woc , how many #woc who don't find their full voice tend to manifest their stress into physical ailments, and what leadership will really look like in the future.
