#PressForProgress – Sheri Crosby Wheeler

Sheri Crosby Wheeler believes we should continue to shine a light on not just the progress that has been made but also the work that needs to be done.

There are a several things that I think I can do to assist in the effort to bring about gender parity. First, now that I am mid-career professional, I can reach out to younger professionals and provide mentoring and advice and in my own company provide sponsorship. Speak up for outstanding women professionals when they are not in the room and make them part of the conversation. Additionally, I can also speak up and continue to shine a light on not just the progress that has been made but also the work that needs to be done. Lastly, I want to continue to learn and educate people about the concept of intersectionality, which is very important when discussing gender parity.
