Lending Privilege
summary
A clear, actionable case for using personal power to change hiring and visibility gaps: the concrete claim is that individuals can lend privilege to others and improve outcomes; three practical moves are credibility lending, access lending, and expertise lending; examples include insisting on equal pay, co-presenting a feature to a board, sending a developer to a Docker conference, or promoting someone to lead a project; the effect is measurable as increased visibility and career mobility.
