While hiring more Black professionals in the workplace is a good first step toward diversity, it's not enough especially if the company doesn't provide the necessary support for advancement.

Terry Allen, the CEO of 1016 Media, joins me in this episode to talk about diversity and what it really means to Black professionals.

Terry is a business owner and a consultant for small businesses. He is a co-author of the best-selling Simon and Schuster book, "Real Men Cook: Rites, Rituals, and Recipes for Living". He is considered one of the top marketing specialists in the South and Southwest markets.
