Join us and be inspired in this replay episode from Women Acquiring Assets, featuring Kriz Bell, a visionary leader who serves as the head of strategy, brand, and communications at the Better Man Movement, dedicated to reshaping the way leadership, inclusion, and equity are understood and practiced—especially by men in positions of influence. With a background in branding and communications, Bell has spent her career helping organizations move beyond surface-level diversity initiatives by focusing on systemic change and relational trust. Her personal experiences, including formative time at Mills College and work with women in tech, led her to recognize the need to shift the burden of progress away from the marginalized and toward the gatekeepers—those with the power to make structural changes.
At the heart of Bell’s work is her unwavering commitment to fostering empathy, vulnerability, and open dialogue. She advocates for a workplace culture that values collaboration over competition and emotional intelligence over traditional power dynamics. Her insights into leadership development emphasize that real inclusion requires leaders to “bring their whole selves to work,” engage in reciprocal mentorship, and become comfortable with discomfort. She also underscores the unique challenges working mothers faced during the pandemic, encouraging cultural shifts that better support women and families.
The Better Man Movement offers actionable pathways for male leaders and allies to deepen their understanding of inclusion and lead with greater impact. Through events, weekly discussions, and practical training, the movement equips men with the tools to be effective allies without shame or blame. If you’re ready to close the gap between intention and impact and help build a more equitable workplace, visit Better Man Movement and become part of a movement that champions healthy, inclusive masculinity.
