Waves of Change: African American Leaders Transforming the Water Sector
AWWA members and water utility leaders are paving the way for expanded diversity—and a focus on welcoming and belonging—in the water industry as envisioned in AWWA's 2030 Strategic Plan and Water 2050 initiative.
With a growing number of African American water professionals setting the tone for the utilities they lead, their communities benefit from a heightened level of understanding.
Being an African American leader in the water industry has unique challenges, but setting an example for underrepresented professionals and future generations is an integral driver of their work.
The seven people interviewed for this article stressed common leadership principles: building relationships, aligning with customers’ needs; advocating for diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; removing barriers to professional growth; and inspiring newcomers to the world of water.
