    Silence has a cost. For Black women in the workplace, silence often means carrying the weight of bias, microaggressions, and exclusion without acknowledgment or redress. It can mean sacrificing our authenticity to survive, or leaving our brilliance unearthed to avoid being labeled as “too much.” But silence also comes at a cost to organizations: lost innovation, disengagement, and the erosion of true belonging.

    In this fireside chat hosted by Blacks in Industrial-Organizational Psychology, Marissa Price, MSW will respond to questions curated by the event organizers, offering insights grounded in organizational strategy, social impact, and healing-centered practice. Together, we will examine how bias and inequity suppress voices, the toll this takes on both individuals and organizations, and pathways toward reclaiming voice and agency. Participants will leave with both deeper awareness and practical strategies for fostering workplaces where Black women’s voices are not just heard but valued.


    Marissa Price, MSW is a practitioner-scholar whose work bridges organizational development, impact strategy, and decolonial healing. She earned her Master of Social Work from Washington University in St. Louis in May 2020, where she focused on systems change and equity in organizational settings. Marissa has managed large-scale federal tax credit funding programs and advised institutions on compliance and strategy shaping workforce and community development. Through her consulting practice, she examines the impact of intersectional oppression, racial and gender bias, and nervous system trauma—equipping Black women with practical tools to navigate systemic barriers in the workplace while guiding organizations to design inclusive, innovative solutions that advance equity and belonging.
