Thanks to @oandbinstitute for this helpful handout that centers belonging! Spending some time today applying this to “political institutions as places of work that need to work better for womxn & BIPOC folx, so our democracy works best for us all!”
“This job was not built for young people and it’s kind of a fight to make it work,” the 28-year-old lawmaker said. Read more at: kansascity.com/news/politics-…
“As polarization & gridlock con’t to grip nat’l politics, 🇺🇸 increasingly 👀 to states to fix nation’s most significant challenges. States’ responses to most recent crisis illustrates just how consequential state-level policymaking & implementation are.” abqjournal.com/2582783/modern…
This! #politicalequity
The hardest part about becoming an elected official is knowing who & what you stand for, fighting for it, realizing most people don’t know the real you, & learning to be okay with that while still serving authentically. #authenticleadership #transactionalVSTransformational
Excited to join @rockwoodleaders for “Art of Navigating Change” today & tomorrow as we continue work of @EquityProjectWA! We don’t get to inclusive public policy if we can’t include BIPOC leaders with authenticity & empathy! Thx @OpenSociety for space. #politicalequity
Authentic Leadership is a key element of promoting a diverse and inclusive workplace. Ensuring newly elected leaders can show up authentically is how we will create the systems change our political institutions need to best serve us all! #politicalequity
“Psychological safety is not at odds with having tough conversations – it is what allows us to have tough conversations.” Amy K. Edmundson
It's better to be the wisest person in the room than the smartest. People prove their intelligence by showing what they know. They reveal their wisdom by integrating what everyone knows. Intelligence can be used to advance personal agendas. Wisdom guides groups to shared goals.
Political institutions. We need better supports for women and people of color once they are elected to navigate these places of work and fight for the organizational change we need!

“Third, to advance the work and make it endure, we must change our political culture…” @BrookingsInst @RacePowerPolicy, can we talk about “Political Institutions as Places of Work” when we talk “culture change”? brookings.edu/research/keepi…
Equally important, let’s give women & people of color in political institutions the tools to navigate power in a meaningful way to combat those who seek leadership for the purpose of maintaining their own power & institutional exclusion. #politicalequity

Someday, we’ll have real discussion about emotional & mental toll carried by elected officials in these hyper-polarized times & impact it’s had on retention of women & people of color operating in a system & institutions not built by them, for them, or w/their inclusion in mind.
We all seek status. Part of maturity is evolving how we pursue it. 1. Materialism: respect me for the possessions I own 2. Mastery: respect me for the excellence I achieve 3. Morality: respect me for the virtues I embody 4. Wisdom: the highest form of respect is self-respect
Check out these @washingtonpost reading recommendations & let’s reconsider how we teach political science. @EquityNPolitics #politicalequity #CAPEquity washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/…
As we think about political institutions, particularly state legislatures, as places of work that need to work better for women and people of color so they work best for us all, let’s start by recognizing some barriers to entry. fiorreports.com/political-scie…
“Operating in institutions not built by me, for me, or with my inclusion in mind.” We must treat political institutions like places of work that must work better for women and people of color so they work best for us all! #politicalequity #politicalinstitutions
“When you put a modern person in an ancient institution, they will be forced to change to survive. However, once the institution starts destroying people, it’s time to recognize there’s something wrong w/the institution, not the person trying to survive it.” - from The Princess
Political institutions, as places of work, must work better for women and people of color to work best for us all & strengthen our democracy’s future! #politicalequity
Recruiting more womxn & people from historically excluded communities to run for public office won’t do much for our democracy if we aren’t willing to do the work to change the system that excluded them in the first place! #systemschange #politicalequity #politicalinstitutions
