From Project BFF, Terri and Manya riff on the topic of finding your hype squad with the fabulous author, speaker and founder 'Tine Zekis.
'Tine wrote the book (literally) on finding your hype squad, and here is an article on the topic: Assemble Your Hype Squad. In this episode, we talk about what a hype squad is, why having one can make a real difference in your career--for black women especially, and how to strategically build a group of friends, family, mentors, and like-minded individuals who can keep you motivated, share your dreams, and stand by your side through thick and thin.
Christine ('Tine) Zekis is an educator turned software engineer, international speaker, and author of Overcoming Imposter Syndrome at Work: The Black Woman's Guide to Conquer Perfectionism, Stop Overthinking & Thrive in Your Career. She is the Founder and CEO of Getting Black Women Paid, which empowers Black women professionals to accelerate their careers and soar past the six-figure mark. 'Tine is a sought-after speaker on panels and at tech conferences where she discusses salary negotiation, career changers, imposter syndrome, and Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging in the industry.
