S11 E212: The Work Is About Empowering, Not Doing: Innovative Leadership With Harry Hawkins

September 30, 2025 by Eli Steenlage

Dr. Gee welcomes Harry Hawkins back to the show again to discuss what it means to lead a cross-cultural organization that is focused on empowering the Black community. Harry Hawkins has moved into the President and CEO role of the non-profit Nehemiah, as Dr. Gee transitions into new endeavors.

The two innovative leaders discuss what it is like serving the Black community in a predominantly white community. They have both had to navigate cross-cultural environments in their work. The discussion covers drawing out underserved groups, like Black women and young Black men. Hear Harry Hawkin’s background story and how his experience formed the skills needed for his work with Nehemiah.
