Why IT Matters:

People of all genders - including Women - can and do raise boys to be men. It's just that Men need to step up and own our role, as Fathers and father figures, or as guys who randomly impact other men and boys in everyday life. I share about it in this video featuring Eddie Vedder and a former NFL player talking about Fatherhood https://lnkd.in/gaaqJ-XQ

⚜️As a dedicated marketing leader, proud parent, Eagle Scout, and active scouting volunteer, I am thrilled to celebrate the transformative journey of the Boy Scouts of America as we embrace our new identity: Scouting America. This change is not just a new name—it's a renewed commitment to inclusivity, a reflection of our diverse society, and a beacon for future leaders. In my career, I've learned that a brand is more than a name; it's a promise, a set of values, and a narrative that resonates with its audience. As Scouting America, we are reaffirming our promise to nurture young minds, regardless of gender, race, or identity, in the spirit of integrity, respect, and service. As a parent, I am overjoyed that my children and all young scouts will grow in an environment that celebrates unity and provides equal opportunities for character development and leadership. With over 100,000 girls in the program including 6,000 Eagle scouts, my daughters have a great path to follow towards developing as leaders. As an Eagle Scout, I reflect on the invaluable experiences that shaped me, and I am excited for the new chapters our scouts will write. The world needs leaders who can bridge divides with tolerance and integrity. Scouting America stands ready to equip them with these skills. Here's to the next 114 years and beyond, where we continue to guide our youth towards a promising future of ethical leadership and community service. #ScoutingAmerica #InclusiveFuture #LeadershipDevelopment

During last week's call as part of the personal and professional development training associated with being a member of Black Sisters in STEM , 3 things that stood out to me from the session were: 1. Just because I do something so well doesn't negate my bad habits. 2. Do not do things that are not okay and make them okay in your life. 3. Spirit of error is dangerous. Based on these teachings from our founder Nyamekye (Yah-MEH-chay) Wilson, I have decided to apply these things in my life by 1. Taking out time to re evaluate myself in all aspects of my life and identify my strengths and weaknesses to know which areas need improvement. 2. Take full accountability for the decisions that I make by being intentional and focused. 3. Stop putting off things till the last minute and do things early before deadlines are set It was a very insightful session and if you want to join a community of like minded women in STEM, Sister Nation is the place to be, join us today: https://lnkd.in/dXruEUbn
