   Episode 49: When “Fit” Isn’t Really About Fit | Jan Buckner Walker | BWICA™ Part 4

   Sometimes “fit” has very little to do with performance—and everything to do with how bias gets interpreted as culture. In the conclusion of our October BWICA™ feature, Jan Buckner Walker draws on her experience as an employment lawyer to unpack coded language, microaggressions, advocacy, performance plans, severance, medical leave, and why Black women should not automatically assume they are the problem when something feels off at work. She also leaves us with one final reminder: nurture your quiet.
