In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Black lives matter. Disclaimer* Please, as much as you may listen to me, please LISTEN more to black voices and what they have to say. I am just an ally trying to bring awareness in a small way possible. There are bigger voices to listen to and I encourage people to look to black leaders and listen to black people for the Black Lives Matter movement. Also, my thoughts might get misconstrued since I usually just spit out what I say and I apologize if something does come out wrong. Also, also I said Ahmaud Arbery's name wrong and I apologize and want to make this correction here. And if I said anything else wrong, or I need to be educated more on something, please let me know! Now here's another way to help during this time.
