Rha Goddess and Deepa Purushothaman: 4 ways to redefine power at work to include women of color · 13:25 · Video: TED · Watch at the source

In short: This video explores how to reshape organizational systems to prevent the massive loss of talent caused by toxic, racist cultures. Rha Goddess and Deepa Purushothaman propose four specific pathways to center women of color as leaders and transform workplace dynamics.

The discussion addresses the urgent need to redesign work environments to stop women of color from exiting the workforce due to unfair conditions. Rather than fighting for individual representation—described as a single chair—the speakers argue for a complete reconstruction of organizational structures. By reimagining how power is distributed, companies can move beyond superficial inclusion to create systems where women of color are central to leadership.
