Hello DEI Community,
My name is Dr. Rhamara S. Powell-Jackson, and I recently completed my Doctor of Business Administration in Organizational Leadership. My research explores strategic leadership during organizational crises, with a growing focus on how marginalized leaders navigate power dynamics, decision-making, and visibility within high-pressure environments.
As I expand my scholarship, I am seeking opportunities within the DEI space to:
-
Teach courses related to diversity, leadership, organizational justice, equity-focused management, or inclusive leadership
-
Collaborate on research examining race, gender, leadership identity, psychological safety, and organizational culture
-
Connect with mentors who support early-career DEI scholars
-
Contribute as a reviewer or research partner on DEI projects, conference submissions, or practitioner-oriented initiatives
With over a decade of professional experience in healthcare, HR, and organizational operations - often navigating inequities firsthand - I am passionate about advancing research and practice that elevates the experiences of underrepresented leaders, particularly women of color.
If any teaching needs, research collaborations, or mentorship opportunities are available, I would love to connect.
Thank you all, and I look forward to growing within this community.
Warm regards,
