The Black Sherpa is a podcast that aims to empower social mobility and drive positive change through meaningful conversation.
The Black Sherpa Podcast was founded by Nyambe (Yam) Sumbwanyambe in 2022 in order to address the lack of diversity in the corporate world—particularly among people from disadvantaged backgrounds or marginalised communities who are looking to break through systemic barriers that can hinder social mobility.
This podcast provides listeners with the tools and information they need to break down barriers and advance their careers in the corporate sector.
We believe that everyone deserves a fair chance at success, regardless of race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status.
Our mission is to empower social mobility and drive positive change through meaningful conversation. We inspire and equip our listeners to take action and advance their careers in the corporate sector.
We believe that fostering a supportive community where its members can share their experiences and resources will lead us towards a more equitable society.
Whether you're a student, an intern, or a seasoned professional, we know you've been told all kinds of things about what it takes to succeed—and sometimes those things are just not true. But there's also a lot of really good information out there. We want to share it with you!
We know what it takes to get ahead in life and business is out there… it's just not evenly distributed yet.
But we also think you're amazing, and we want you to know that you have everything you need right now to succeed. So let's talk about it. We'll help you find your way to success by sharing stories of people who've done it before, plus practical advice on how they did it.
If you're looking for a place where you can learn from others' experiences and be inspired by the drive of our guests, then The Black Sherpa Podcast is for you!.
