When the Mountain Looks Different
A young professional of color stands at the base of the corporate ladder, looking up. But here's what makes this climb different: while some colleagues see a gentle incline with clearly marked handholds, this climber sees a sheer rock face obscured by fog. The statistics tell a stark story-Black Americans hold just 3.3% of executive positions despite making up 12.4% of the population. This isn't about working harder or being smarter. It's about recognizing that the game has different rules depending on who's playing. Errol L. Pierre scaled this mountain from the Bronx to the C-suite of major healthcare companies, and his journey reveals a fundamental truth: you need more than ambition and talent. You need a completely different playbook.
