These Black Women Are Leading the Way in Corporate America
Fairygodboss was founded on a mission of equality, diversity and inclusion — because all people deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. We stand firmly with the Black community in the fight against racism and hate. And we also recognize that words of solidarity alone aren’t nearly enough.
For true change to happen, it requires us taking a long, hard look at all of the social, economic and political systems that have contributed to our current state of inequality. In Corporate America, it means questioning why this year, the Fortune 500 CEO list included not one Black woman, and why, when 64% of Black women in the U.S. say their goal is to make it to the top of their profession, they represent only 4% of C-Suite positions.
We have to do better. We have to understand that in order to truly support Black lives and build an equitable version of society for all, it also means supporting Black aspirations, ambitions and goals. It means rooting out the inequities in our economic systems, as well as our political and social ones. And it means amplifying the voices and celebrating the achievements of Black women who are paving the way for those behind them.
FGB is proud to work with corporate partners that are committed to seeing Black women succeed. For our Black Women Leading the Way in Corporate America initiative, we asked our partners and corporate contacts to shine a light on the accomplishments of some of the incredible Black women, across career stages, who are making waves within their organizations. Below, we want to highlight these 41 Black women whose corporate careers are worth watching.

Head of Global Diversity at RBC Wealth Management - U.S.
“For more than 15 years, Wanda Brackins has been a leading voice for Diversity & Inclusion efforts and commitments at RBC – both in her role as Head of Diversity for RBC Wealth Management and across the broader RBC enterprise and its network of nearly 90,000 employees. A sought-after leader throughout the organization, Wanda leads RBCWM-U.S.’ Diversity Leadership Council and regularly contributes to RBC’s Global Diversity Leadership Council. Examples of Wanda’s leadership include: expanding the Supplier Diversity Program, which engages businesses owned by women, people of color, LGBT+, people with disabilities, and veterans to create a diverse and inclusive supply chain; acting as a driving force behind RBC’s 2017 video series created to increase representation of women in financial services — the videos contributed to hiring more female financial advisors in 2018/2019 than in any year prior and a 60% increase in women in branch leadership positions; hosting events; creating fact sheets; and providing resources to individual advisors who are interested in reaching diverse populations in their area. Recently, Wanda’s commitment and dedicated leadership to support communities of color led RBC to take a bold and actionable stand against anti-Black racism following the death of George Floyd. She championed fellow leaders at RBC to not just offer words of sympathy, but to outline the specific steps RBC will take to support communities and employees for a more equitable future.”

She has truly made her mark in expanding our team at Nutanix. Rouchand recently stepped up to tackle a new and important challenge: building out Nutanix’s first diversity program to help us bring more diverse talent into the Nutanix family. This is no small feat, as Nutanix is 10 years old and has 6000+ people globally. As a manager, Rouchand is a true professional.

She started with us as a contractor but was soon hired on full time because of her many talents.

These are not easy complaints and require a detailed review of each using both a customer lense and company lense to evaluate situations. She has the ability to look closely at both sides of an issue and represent either fairly. Tiffany’s employment history says so much about her. She has been a hairdresser, a paralegal, and managed to get a Business Degree online; this is just a glimpse into her willingness to explore new opportunities and successfully achieve goals she sets for herself.

29. Melina Owusu
Sales Development Representative Manager at Fairygodboss
“Melina is the definition of a Fairygodboss. She supports other women, and this was clear within a week of me joining the company. For no reason other than that she is an extremely kind and helpful person, she made sure I felt welcomed. She checked in on me, pointed me in the right direction when I was looking for information, and always made it seem like she had time for my questions (some that felt silly, but you never made me feel that way for asking). One of the first things I noticed about her was her incredible fashion sense, but I would soon come to learn that that is the least interesting thing about her. She is extremely well-grounded, focused, and a natural born leader. She takes her work so seriously, and I’m always impressed by the creative strategies she comes up with to reach more prospects. But her work doesn’t stop there! She has a business that she runs, two kids that she cares for - and I’ve asked her several times, “How do you manage a schedule like that?” And her response is always “this is what I have to do.” Period. You never complain, you look for solutions and you act on them. A true boss. Her passion, work and impact have encouraged me to feel more confident about myself in all areas of life, not just at work. If I haven’t made it clear already, I admire her greatly and I’m so grateful to call her a friend. Someone once told me that ingratitude is the greatest sin. Please know I am innocent of that charge. Thank you, thank you, thank you Melina - for being you."

She quickly raised her hand to lead our global Healthcare Businesswomen’s Association (HBA) relationship and immediately elevated our thinking about what to accomplish with this partnership. When we ran into some roadblocks for connecting our insights to HBA’s members, she continued to persist and connect with HBA leaders. With a clear vision of the benefits we can bring to HBA, grit, and humor, she has single handedly forged a relationship which will be foundational for years to come. She also is a strong voice in our Black and Hispanic Alliance (BHA) and skillfully moderated a community discussion about being Black in America last week for over 900 people that has been described as ‘the most moving, personal, and powerful webinar I have ever attended.’ Monte is skilled at translating insights into strategy and action.

38. Charlene Vance
Custom Operations Leader for Transportation and Electronics at 3M
“Charlene Vance is a woman of not only words, but actions. ‘Don’t just talk about it, be about it.’ Those words propel her as the running back coach to the world champion Atlanta Xplosion women’s football team, as a chair to 3M’s African American Employee Resource Network (AAERN), as a mother, and as a sales and marketing professional. Two recent examples demonstrate Charlene’s dedication to doing what’s right. Following the murder of George Floyd, community outcry and peaceful protests in the Twin Cities area (home to 3M’s global headquarters), Charlene’s role as the AAERN chair allowed for her to bravely and honestly share her perspective as a Black female, mother and wife. She candidly shared how her community is hurting, how we all can be allies and advocates, and how her family is progressing together. And at the start of the pandemic, Charlene knew that working differently and serving 3M’s customers would be drastically changing, and quickly. As the Custom Operations Leader for 3M’s Transportation and Electronics business group in the U.S. and Canada, she deftly shifted the group’s activities to an online format all while leading with compassion, honesty and positivity. She wanted to ensure her full team felt supported not only because they in return needed to be supporting 3M’s customers, but because it was the right thing to do in one of the most pivotal moments in recent history.”
