Untapped Leadership by Jenny Vazquez-Newsum Summary
Overview of Untapped Leadership
"Untapped Leadership" challenges traditional leadership paradigms by centering marginalized voices. Born from reflections on George Floyd's murder and COVID-19, Vazquez-Newsum's work asks: What if our most powerful leaders remain unseen? Discover why DEI experts call this perspective "essential" for tomorrow's organizations.

When the Leadership Playbook Was Written Without You
What if every leadership lesson you've ever learned was designed for someone else? Not metaphorically-literally. The frameworks executives memorize, the traits HR departments screen for, the behaviors that earn promotions: they emerged from studies conducted when women couldn't vote, when segregation was legal, when "leader" and "white man" were practically synonyms. We've spent decades refining these models, never pausing to ask whether we've been perfecting the wrong blueprint. The corporate world celebrates diversity while clinging to definitions of leadership that systematically exclude the very people it claims to welcome. Leadership theory didn't begin with objective science-it started with Thomas Carlyle's 1840s assertion that history belonged to "great men" blessed by divine favor. Women, people of color, anyone outside the elite? Simply not part of the equation. We might laugh at such obvious bias today, yet its DNA persists in how we idolize charismatic CEOs and favor candidates who "look the part." Francis Galton took this further, attempting to prove through eugenics that leadership flowed through bloodlines. Though we've rightfully discredited eugenics, its shadow lingers in assumptions about who naturally belongs in corner offices.
