Meet Shahzia Nourali, the exceptional Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion practitioner, who with her dynamic voice, is changing the narrative around workplace authority and equity. In our enlightening conversation, she shares her inspiring journey from a place of isolation in her first leadership role, to becoming a passionate advocate for equity within the utilities industry and beyond. Her unique insights are shaped by her experiences as a woman of color, a child of immigrants, and an HR practitioner.
Our conversation takes us through the challenges and biases that persist in traditional leadership and mentorship models. With Shahzia leading the way, we explore the concept of sponsorship, and how it can create a space for authentic expression, amplifying not just talent but also the voices that often go unheard. We grapple with the systemic effects of racism, discussing the importance of bringing to the fore voices that remain outside the usual circles of influence.
