The Bella Network isn’t just an organization.
It’s a Tribe of Women Ready to Scale.

The Bella Network strives to be the most sought-after transformational leadership conference and membership-based program for entry-, mid-, and executive-level women of color.

We bring both careered professionals at all levels and entrepreneurs together to share and grow a beneficial context for Black and Brown women’s promotion to executive levels. We address the race inequities that the women’s movement, most women’s conferences, and leadership development programs ignore. We offer insightful, engaging, and highly collaborative events to educate and empower professional women on overcoming racism and sexism and the intersection of the two based on best practices from successful women.

Our focus is ensuring that Black women’s challenges are addressed to broaden their numbers at each rung towards the C-suite, but we apply to all women of color and advocates.

Better Financial Performance

The annual McKinsey and Company report found that there is a correlation between ethnic diversity and financial performance in the United States, pointing out in 2019 that for every 10% increase in ethnic diversity on the senior executive team, earnings before interest and taxes increase by 0.8%. Reinforcing and educating Black women on the importance of building awareness and leveraging best practices around bias can build inroads to better inclusion and performance.

Improved Company Reputation

We are proud of the five-year commitment from HP, Inc., proving that supporting Black professional women hasn’t been a crisis response but an embedded value as HP, Inc. had supported organizations like The Bella Network before it was seen as a newsworthy imperative. Over the years, major businesses have publicly stated their dedication to improving and supporting diversity and inclusion within their organizations. Yet, they haven’t pushed beyond words into actions that support this vision and impact Black women’s percentages.

Increased Employee Engagement

Ethics and gender balance in the workplace are beneficial to your employees. Teaching Black women how to overcome isolation, bias, systemic racism, and sexism helps create an atmosphere where they can appropriately position themselves and leverage best practices to garner respect from other team members as they take a seat at the table. When Black women’s response to adversity gains respect from their colleagues, everyone feels their best, and the team will deliver their best.
