How great leaders make their courage contagious | Hang Black | TEDxUniversity of Northern Iowa

"Leaders of today want to protect what they've taken great risks to build. But what happens when we tell a whole generation to play it safe and don't rock the boat? Hang Black is an international speaker on sales and leadership, and a passionate advocate for women in the workplace. After her family escaped from war-torn Vietnam to arrive as refugees in America, Hang grew up in the Cajun South, earned a BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, and worked in leading technology organizations such as Advanced Micro Devices, Cisco Systems and Juniper Networks, as well as starting and running her own sales company. She is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Embrace Your Edge, about how groups without access can pave their own path to success. Hang imagines a world where all great leaders leave a legacy of courage to the next generation." From penniless refugee to accomplished sales leader, Hang has most recently received the Lifetime Achievement Award for Revenue Enablement (2024) by Selling Power Magazine, recognized as the Most Visionary Revenue Technology Evangelist in SF Bay Area (2023) by Acquisition International Influential Businesswoman, and honored with the inaugural Woman of Impact (2022) Award by Quinnipiac University. With a BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, her career spans engineering, marketing, and sales, earning the nickname “Black Ops”. A multinational keynote speaker on sales, leadership, and a passionate advocate for women in the workplace, she is the author of a Wall Street Journal best-selling book, Embrace Your Edge, for underrepresented groups in the workplace.
