Striving While Black

By: Kwame S. Salter

Narrated by: Kwame S. Salter

Striving While Black is a personal reflection, a playbook and a portable mentor for African-Americans and others who didn't and don't have the advantage of trailblazers who have gone before them in forging a successful corporate career. Success in corporate America is based on not only what you know - but, as importantly, who you know and who will sponsor you, share information with you as well as advocate for you. This book shares in a straight talking manner what those who feel marginalized in corporate need to do for themselves to be seen as competitive and value added.

This is a great resource!

As a senior manager for a research institution, I found the insights in this provided enlightening. This will be a must read for my 10 and 7 year olds when they come of age.

excellent words of wisdom.

I think this book is an excellent read I would highly recommend this book to all friends and family .

Used kwame’s guidance with success

I found myself saying, WOW someone has walked this path and documented a strategy on how to counter the adversity. I was truly frustrated in my corporate climb and decided what the hay! I tried a concept that led to another use of one Kwame's well-articulated concept then found myself referring back to sections for additional guidance. Truly insightful, this manual was crafted for our situations. All I can say is Thank you! Extreme gratitude, I am now at the VP level and I'm just getting started for my next chapter!

great book

highly recommend for all black professionals men and women that are trying to navigate through Corporate America.

Great Insight

Starting outing this into action immediately and I am seeing results. Short listen but a must repeat listen.
