概要
In this episode of Rich Lessons, we sit down with powerhouse executive Deb Grant—GE's first Black female corporate officer, former president of the GE Foundation (overseeing a $130M budget), board director, and CEO of Corporate Playbook—to decode what actually moves the needle and what it really takes to succeed in corporate America and beyond—and it's not just “working harder.”
From becoming GE’s first Black female corporate officer to advising top executives and sitting on public boards, Deb shares the unfiltered truth about corporate power, board access, and strategic visibility that nobody puts in a LinkedIn post.
We dive into:
• Why hard work alone won’t get you promoted
• The critical difference between mentors vs. sponsors (and why it changes everything)
• How to get on corporate boards and build real influence
• The importance of visibility, relationships, and executive presence
• How Black women can navigate corporate spaces, funding gaps, and leadership barriers
• The unwritten rules of career growth no one teaches you
This conversation is a masterclass for entrepreneurs, professionals, and anyone looking to strategically level up their career.
Key takeaway: It’s not just who you know. It’s who speaks your name in the room.
