Kasheef Wyzard is the National Director of Dream.Org. As a first-generation American born to parents of Caribbean descent, Kasheef attributes the alignment of his career and purpose to interventions and exposure to educational resources far outside of the community that raised him. With such a dichotomy between the two worlds he grew to know, an unshakeable commitment to be on the frontline of change was born.
Some of the talking points Kasheef and I go over in this episode include:
- How access is linked to opportunities in tech.
- Kasheef’s work with Fortune 500 companies to diversify their talent base.
- Getting into opportunities while the tides are low versus when the tides are rising.
- How Dream.org prepares people to rescale, upskill, and pivot their careers.
