Our guest this week is Porter Braswell, CEO and cofounder of Jopwell, the leading career advancement platform for Black, Latinx, and Native American students and professionals. Braswell advises over 100 of America’s leading companies on how to achieve a more representative workplace, while also creating professional opportunities for Jopwell’s community. 

He’s just written a book, Let Them See You, that’s out now. It addresses how diverse individuals can leverage their diversity as an asset at work, and also how champions of diversity can understand the value and for diverse candidates in the workplace.

We discuss what drove him to create his platform, the importance of diversity in the workplace, and the intrinsic business value of embracing a diverse work force. Plus the work-life balance of a start up CEO
