Episode Video Link:
Donald Trump may be able to insult journalists, ignore protocol, and escape workplace consequences—but you probably cannot.
In this episode of Need to Know, Dr. Nsenga Burton delivers a candid warning about privilege, professionalism, and abusive leadership. She examines Trump’s treatment of women journalists, particularly Black women and other women of color, and explains why remaining silent allows toxic behavior to spread.
Dr. Burton also challenges professionals not to imitate conduct that could destroy their credibility, damage workplace relationships, or cost them their jobs. Power may delay accountability, but it does not erase the consequences of how a leader treats people.
