DISRUPT 5.0: Filipina Women Leading with Intersectionality is a transformative anthology that challenges the corporate status quo and invites business leaders to rethink their approach to leadership diversity.

This compelling collection highlights the intimate stories of Filipina women-first and second-generation immigrants-who have navigated and overcome barriers related to race, class, gender, poverty, violence, religion, and education. These women have forged paths through complex professional landscapes, often defying stereotypes and breaking through systemic biases to achieve remarkable leadership positions.

Each narrative in DISRUPT 5.0 offers insights into the profound ways intersectionality shapes the lived experiences of Filipina women. Through their personal journeys, readers will gain a deeper understanding of these leaders’ hidden challenges, from navigating issues of inclusion and visibility to battling underrepresentation in management and decision-making roles.

For DEI professionals, male executives, and anyone committed to fostering genuinely inclusive workplaces, this book is an essential guide. It not only amplifies voices that too often go unheard but also serves as a powerful tool for creating actionable change. By understanding and addressing the intersectional barriers that Filipina women face, organizations can unlock a wealth of talent, innovation, and leadership potential that is too often overlooked.

DISRUPT 5.0 is more than a book-it’s a call to action for leaders to champion diversity with intention and disrupt the systems that hold women of color back.
