For a second, let’s set aside the guilt and instead focus on the people around us: the people who have been told they need to seek opportunities to improve the team, department, or org; the people who are eager for a challenge; the people who need to deliver something impactful in order to prove they’re capable of leading. They, especially the marginalized folks among them, might be ready to take on their next challenge but don’t have an opportunity to do so.
