Add your own review!

Overview

Young people of colour confront a myriad of challenges that deter them from considering, pursuing, and succeeding at careers in international affairs. The authors of this book address these challenges, drawing on the experiences of Black American giants in the field to provide systematic, practical advice. From getting started to learning to lead, from overcoming imposter syndrome to acing performance reviews, from dealing with racism to knowing when to say no, the invaluable tips and hard-earned wisdom in the book go beyond standard resources to provide an essential guide for Black Americans seeking to play a much-needed role in the global arena.
