Harmony ERG Highlights AAPI Heritage Month Panel on Inclusive Leadership and Resilience

Programming example

Our this month Ambassador challenge is to share "What Inclusion means to me"To me, inclusion is when every voice not only has a seat at the table, but is also heard, respected, and valued. It's about creating a space where ideas flow freely, identities are celebrated, and people feel safe being their whole selves—whether they're speaking up in a meeting or sharing a festival from their culture.As a Woman in tech ERG member and co-chair of the Harmony ERG, I have seen the impact of inclusion up close. As part of ERG Harmony, I recently had the honor of co-hosting and moderating “A Legacy of Leadership and Resilience”, a panel featuring inspiring Asian American leaders for AAPI Month. Hearing Dr. Rowena Tomaneng and Raymond Mendenilla share their journeys was not just moving, it was a powerful reminder of how lived experiences can shape leadership, strength, and community.In my role as a Product Manager, inclusion also means building with empathy, ensuring we design solutions that reflect the lived experiences of all types of learners and institutions. It’s about inviting feedback from students who are often left out of the conversation, and creating products that support equity and access in higher education.Inclusion isn't just a value—it's an everyday action. And when we practice it consistently, we unlock not just innovation, but genuine belonging. 💙hashtag#InclusionAtEllucian hashtag#EllucianLife hashtag#AAPImonthcelebrations
