Clinton G. Johnson Launches BreakThrough At Work: A Data-Driven Coaching and App Platform Tackling Talent Blindspots in Corporate America
An innovative coaching program and mobile app by Us At Spaces equips Black, Latinx, and women professionals to gain visibility, recognition, and leadership readiness while helping companies reduce the $398B cost of underutilized talent.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — National Geographic Explorer and antiracist geoarchitect Clinton G. Johnson today announced the launch of BreakThrough At Work, a dual 8-week coaching program and mobile app designed to address one of corporate America's most persistent challenges: the systemic invisibility of Black, Latinx, and women professionals in leadership pipelines.
The program uses Johnson's Undeniable Storytelling Method to help high-potential professionals overcome 'Talent Blindspots'—structural and cultural patterns that cause organizations to overlook qualified employees despite measurable impact. Combining live coaching, career templates, and a microlearning app, BreakThrough At Work offers a scalable, data-driven solution to improve representation, retention, and leadership readiness.
'Too many brilliant professionals are doing the work, driving results, and still being overlooked,' Johnson said. 'If we want to fix what's broken in our workplaces, we must start by equipping the people stuck in talent blindspots.'
The Business ImpactWorkforce studies highlight the urgency:
70% of employees of color report working harder just to be seen as competent (CTI).
Women of color hold less than 5% of senior roles despite earning the majority of advanced degrees in their demographic (LeanIn & McKinsey).
Leadership visibility gaps cost U.S. businesses $398B annually in lost productivity (SHRM & Gallup).
Traditional DEI programs often emphasize compliance over career growth, leaving many capable employees stalled or exiting. BreakThrough At Work shifts the focus from liability to leverage, helping professionals build undeniable personal brands while providing organizations with a roadmap to unlock hidden capacity.
Launch Timeline & Early ImpactThe mobile app launched in June 2025, with the first full coaching cohort starting September 22, 2025. Early participants report increased recognition, faster promotions, and renewed career confidence—without code-switching or burnout.
Cohort applications and the free guide From Invisible to Irresistible are now available at
