Not all leadership happens from the front of the room. Many professionals lead from positions without formal authority, recognition, or visibility—yet their influence is critical to organizational success.

This session examines how leadership shows up in the margins and how individuals can exercise influence without waiting for permission or title changes. Rashonda Harris draws on lived experience and leadership practice to explore visibility, credibility, and the quiet forms of leadership that shape outcomes. Participants will leave with strategies for leading with intention, even when recognition is limited.
