== '''Identification of future Black Leaders''' ==

The existence of systemic barriers and challenges have long hindered the career advancement of Black Executives. This has prompted the Black Executives Network (BEN/REN) to create an alternative method to manage Black Executive Talent through the creation and use of the professional profiles of Black Executives eBinder. This was used to highlight the existing talent of our members at the director (EX-01) through Director General (EX-03) levels and increase the representation of Black executives in the federal workforce. The Black Executive eBinder is now welcomed by the heads of departments and agencies as well as heads of Human Resources within these organizations. We know that these barriers and challenges also exist for Black individuals with management and leadership capacity below the EX level, therefore our goal with this initiative is to emulate the model used to promote and support the advancement of the Black Executives community and adapt it to the feeder groups.

These profiles are meant to provide senior management and human resources officials with a line of sight on individuals that can be talent managed to the next level in order to support the recruitment of new directors (EX-01) and the EX-01 feeder groups through profiling the qualifications, accomplishments, leadership results and career ambitions of each individual.  

The professional profiles of Black Talent in Feeder Groups are a one-pager summary of professional information about yourself that will be showcase to senior management to support the recruitment of new directors (EX-01) in their organizations. It highlights your qualifications, accomplishments, leadership results and provides the reader with an understanding of your career ambitions. The professional profiles are voluntarily completed by Black public servants below the EX level who are promotion ready and have been at level for more than 24 months because of systemic barriers that prevent them from being considered for the same opportunities as their peers. The profiles are compiled together and included in an e-binder to demonstrate the depth and breadth of Black talent who are ready for advancement and to help inform succession planning, support talent mobility, and increase the representation of Black individuals in the federal workforce. It also helps remove barriers for Black employees who lack managerial support by introducing their profile to other managers looking to hire talent.

'''Process / How-to'''

The profiles are shared with executives from the Black Executives Network (BEN/REN) and other managers in the public service who are looking to diversify their teams, support the identification of diverse internal talent and to ensure that qualified, inclusive, and agile individuals are well placed to serve Canadians.
