Devoted to women of color in business

Friends, I'm looking to share your stories for SistersinBiz.com's "Spotlight on Success".

If you are female, if you consider yourself a minority in your workplace or business field, either through your cultural heritage, religious heritage, or sexual orientation, and you are an entrepreneur, business owner, solopreneur, and/or expert in your current field, please let me share your story with others!

(examples: African-American, Asian, Latina, Hispanic, Native American, Arab, mixed-race, hapa, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, part of the LGBTQ community, or somehow you are a minority in your circle of competitors and colleagues)

---------

Your responses may make it into the personal anecdotes of a new book on women of color and entrepreneurship, to be published in late 2008.

Other women will benefit from hearing your story of your business, not just the easy parts or the times when you experienced great success, but the difficult challenges and the tests to your spirit that you encounter while building your company and rising in your field. It is important to me to focus on these unique challenges and publish specific stories from real women. We have a chance to encourage other women to take charge of the future and build on our knowledge.

So, I ask you to please share with me:


1) Where did you get started in your business?

2) What values do you try to live by?

3) Who do you consider to be a role model?

4) Name one of your biggest challenges and how you learned from that situation.

5) When was your most successful moment, to date?

Please send me a brief bio and description of your business so we may highlight your work. By sending Monica Flores this information, you authorize its publication on SistersinBiz.com.

Thank you.
