In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Kennethjenks relives what he was doing when the news came down. We discuss if TMZ was wrong to break the story before the LA county sheriff could notify the families. There was a lot of false stories and irresponsible journalism & reporting. So the question is posed... Is journalism and reporting a dying profession? Kennethjenks does not believe the MSNBC reporter said the N-word. Why do people feel so much grief for someone most of us have never met? Kennethjenks tries to answer that. Terry Crews vs Gabrielle Union. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/blackcoffeepodcast/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/blackcoffeepodcast/support…
