EP 92: Stacy Gregg on Black Women Leaders + Navigating the Corporate Workplace

In the fourth segment of the Level Up HER Leadership Podcast Series, we have Stacy Gregg in the guest chair. Stacy is one of the podcast's all-time favorite guests.

 In today's podcast conversation, Stacy and I discuss how women, especially black women can use their faith and personal power to create a corporate career that aligns with the best of who they are while at the same navigating common challenges and using the support of others to navigate new challenges to achieve career success.

Stacy Gregg, CPPO, CPPB is a passionate advocate for the public procurement profession.  As such, she works by a set of values and guiding principles, which include accountability, ethical practice, professionalism, and service.  All of which Stacy believes is true to who she should be as a woman of God.   As a procurement professional, she has the rare gift of being analytical and personable. She’s a woman whose faith serves as the foundation for her personal and professional values.
