“BE A RIPPLE POWERFUL ENOUGH TO LEAVE A LEGACY.”
— Elle Ramsey, The Corporate Griot
​
​
This isn’t just a 150-page leadership book, it’s a lived story. In The Corporate Griot: Conscious Leadership for the Woman of Color, Elle Ramsey invites readers into her personal journey through boardrooms, battlefields, and beyond. Each chapter unfolds as a reflection of her lived experiences, the pressure, the breakthroughs, and the awakening that comes when a woman decides to lead from consciousness rather than conformity.
​
This book bridges lived experience with empowerment. An invitation to lead with presence, courage, and compassion. It’s for the woman who knows she’s called to something greater, who’s ready to rise with clarity, and who refuses to compromise her purpose for anyone’s comfort.
​
Each chapter begins with a story, raw, real, and rooted in truth, followed by reflections and practical insights you can apply to your own leadership, business, life, or team.
​
 
​You’ll discover how to:
Reclaim your power in spaces that weren’t designed for your brilliance
Lead with presence, purpose, and peace not pressure
Navigate identity, authenticity, and impact as a woman of color
Break free from inherited narratives that limit your leadership
Step fully into your rhythm of success one aligned with both soul and strategy
