First-generation professionals (FGPs) are from working-class (blue-collar) backgrounds and are the first in their family to be employed in a professional (white-collar) workplace.
This platform recognizes FGPs, minorities, people of color, and young professionals for the assets they already are. You overcame the life you were born into, which makes you victorious. We provide the missing resources you need to break barriers and achieve success at all levels in your career. Our Growing Forward community will empower, inform, and transform you. From working-class to world-class, we’re right there with you.
Us FGPs have so much untapped potential because we don’t know how to overcome our social barriers and manage office politics. If only we had the right tools to showcase our skills in our careers, we’d do better for ourselves, our families, and our societies. Now we do!
I hope you will join me - and us - in stepping powerfully into your potential, owning your talents, and living with greater freedom.
This platform is a resource center for active first-gen talent and organizations looking to diversify their talent pools. We equip them with the tools and support they need to trust their gifts, burst through barriers, and advance their careers. Today’s corporate structures have many unwritten rules and nuances they don’t teach you in school. With over two decades in white-collar settings, we’ve unlocked these special codes and are making them available to you today.
