Ep 20: A Conversation On The Career Platform for Diverse Employees - How Dyversifi Co-Founder and CMO Dumebi Egbuna Is Using Technology To Illuminate The Minority Corporate Experience
Today’s episode features Dumebi Egbuna, Co-Founder and CMO of Dyversifi, the career insight platform for diverse employees, helping you de-fog the glass ceiling before you break through it. Dumebi completed her BA in Marketing and Strategic Consulting from Emory University in 2018. Upon entering the corporate workforce she was confronted with the harsh realities that many Black women ultimately face, dealing with micro aggressions from both sides of her identity, being Black and a woman. She found herself not always feeling completely seen and her work truly valued. After one particular workplace experience that left her frustrated and looking to take action, she teamed up with her brother, Toby to launch Dyversifi with the goal of sharing minority workplace stories, good, bad and in-between, so that other minorities can learn from them and ultimately find a company and career where they can thrive and be successful. Listen as we discuss how Dumebi’s educational and professional experience shaped her vision for Dyversifi, some of the recurring themes and challenges expressed in the stories shared by minorities on the platform, how companies and employees can get the most out of Dyversifi, and how Dumebi is personally balancing entrepreneurship and climbing the corporate ladder.
