Just as hidden icebergs pose unseen threats to ships, discrimination in the workplace lurks beneath the surface, threatening to damage careers and well-being. During this presentation, you'll learn the essential steps to fight discrimination in toxic workplaces, to recognize early signs of discriminatory practices, and to effectively address and report these issues. Jacquie Abram is the international best-selling and award-winning author of Hush Money: How One Woman Proved Systemic Racism in her Workplace & Kept her Job and Hush Money: The Cost of Being Black in Corporate America.
Before Jacquie began her journey as an author, consultant, and instructor, she had a lucrative career in higher education that spanned nearly two decades. After Jacquie’s career was repeatedly derailed by racists and toxic leaders and she suffered severe racial trauma, she pulled herself out of corporate America to save her sanity, self-published Hush Money with her daughters, Delilah Harris and Deborah Harris, and sold it from the trunk of her car at parks and pop-up shops. Seven months later, Hush Money was an international best-selling book read in countries around the world. Hush Money is not just another book about systemic racism. For Black employees, Hush Money is a survival guide for fighting back against racism in the workplace and not walking away empty-handed. For employers, it’s a compass for identifying covert racism to help them find what they can’t see.
Jacquie Abram is also the Employee’s Workplace Discrimination Consultant as well as the instructor and subject matter expert of a masterclass called "How to Fight Discrimination in a Toxic Workplace." Jacquie has been featured in Forbes, ABC News, and Spectrum News among others, is a #1 Amazon Bestseller, and is the recipient of the Readers Favorite gold medal for social issues novels. Her proactive approach empowers and encourages individuals to take a stand against toxic elements in their work environments, ultimately contributing to the broader fight against workplace abuse and its detrimental effects. In her masterclasses, Jacquie teaches Black employees in toxic workplaces how to fight back against racial discrimination because what’s happening to many of them is not unconscious — it’s unconscionable.
