Businesses leadership must learn to operate in an information economy but information alone has no inherent value. It's only information that is developed into knowledge that has value.

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

To that end, my goal is to democratize business school education so that business leaders anywhere, particularly from marginalized and vulnerable communities, can develop the skills and knowledge needed to build successful businesses

At the intersection of Theory and Application lies:

  • Knowledge,
  • Creativity,
  • Innovation
  • And the opportunity to redefine our

global capitalist systems without white supremacy

Racism

Racism is different from racial prejudice, hatred, or

  • discrimination. Racism involves one group having the power to

carry out systematic discrimination through the institutional policies and practices of the society and by shaping the cultural beliefs and values that support those racist policies and practices. http://www.dismantlingracism.org/racism-defined.html

Anti-Blackness

The Council for Democratizing Education defines anti- Blackness as being a two-part formation that both voids Blackness of value, while systematically marginalizing Black people and their issues.

slide-25
SLIDE 25

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Anti-Blackness

The first form of anti-Blackness is overt racism. Beneath this anti-Black racism is the covert structural and systemic racism which categorically predetermines the socioeconomic status of Blacks in the U.S. [globally]. The structure is held in place by anti-Black policies, institutions, and ideologies.

slide-26
SLIDE 26

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Anti-Blackness

The second form of anti-Blackness is the unethical disregard for anti-Black institutions and policies. This disregard is the product of class, race, and/or gender privilege certain individuals experience due to anti-Black institutions and policies. This form of anti-Blackness is protected by the first form of overt racism.

  • Products and services are not

businesses.

  • You cannot manage what you

cannot measure

  • Marginalized entrepreneurs
  • verwhelmingly create jobs for

themselves, rather than businesses

All too often, organizations fail, can’t scale and/or become toxic because their leaders don’t understand that growth requires processes that enable connectedness, innovation and competitive advantage.

slide-30
SLIDE 30

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Successful organizations are built on foundations that enable their leaders to turn information into knowledge in order to scale, evolve, and recover.

slide-31
SLIDE 31

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

The ability of organizational leaders to successfully create and manage operations relies heavily on how well they are at developing these necessary processes.

slide-32
SLIDE 32

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

When leaders take the time to understand and

  • perationalize their organization’s functions, they

avoid common barriers to success while being able to recover more quickly from unexpected events.

slide-33
SLIDE 33

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Building a successful organization, with fewer unintended consequences, requires more than a great product or service. It requires leaders being able to give all stakeholders the experiences they want and the ability to manage the process.

slide-34
SLIDE 34

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

All Stackholders

  • Those who work for you;
  • Those who partner with you;
  • Those who buy from you;
  • Those who invest in you.
slide-35
SLIDE 35

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Going from product/service focused to business model focused takes time, intention, and strategic

  • effort. All are necessary in order to innovate,

differentiate, and compete in the Information Age.

slide-36
SLIDE 36

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Also, building stakeholder rather than shareholder focused organizations is a proactive approach to addressing inclusion, diversity, safe spaces, and developing a harm reduction perspective.

slide-37
SLIDE 37

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

When leaders create organizations around well- defined and tested core values, that consider the needs of all stakeholders and have processes in place to monitor progress, they are less likely to discover, at some point in the future, that they’ve been nurturing an exclusionary environment; with unintended consequences.

Process for shifting from products/services focused to business model focused…

slide-40
SLIDE 40

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Step 1: Imagine

Imagine the ideal stakeholder experience and write it down in detail

slide-41
SLIDE 41

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Step 2: Define

Define core values AND indicators of success

slide-42
SLIDE 42

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Step 3: Apply

Apply measurements to indicators

slide-43
SLIDE 43

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Step 4: Test

Test the indicators with stakeholders

slide-44
SLIDE 44

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Step 5: Evaluate

Evaluate measurements to determine if benchmarks were met

slide-45
SLIDE 45

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Step 6: Standardization

Create formal processes based on knowledge gained from evaluation

slide-46
SLIDE 46

@KimCrayton1 #AntiracistEconomist

Important Considerations

  • Core values should inform all organizational decisions.
  • Remember that this is an ongoing process.
  • The decisions that are the result of this process, should not be

seen as immutable or rigid.

  • Organizational leaders should plan to review whether stakeholder

factors have changed at least 2x a year. This will enable them to proactively anticipate shifting needs and plan accordingly.
