Fresh from the 35th Annual Conference of the National Black MBA Association (NBMBAA) former NBMBAA Board Chair William Wells, Jr. (Bill) discusses the highlights of the yearly event of nearly 10,000 attendees. With hundreds of top corporations sponsoring the event held recently in Houston, Texas, Bill will give us the inside track and will share key findings that are changing the career dynamics across the United States. As part of Carole’s new “Kitchen Cabinet Leadership Team,” Bill delivers a healthy dose of reality for listeners who are just starting their careers to emerging leaders to seasoned veterans. He’ll regularly join Focus On Empowerment with new data, surveys and tangible insights pertaining to the world of work for people of color. ======== About The National Black MBA Association www.nbmbaa.org The genesis of the NBMBAA can be traced back to an historical 1970, two-day conference held at the renowned University of Chicago in which a group of dynamic African-American MBA students, faculty advisors and businessmen, compelled by feelings of social and political unrest, convened to discuss and examine whether to establish a professional organization of Black MBAs. The momentous conference represented some of the most illustrious academic institutions including Harvard, northwestern, University of Southern California, Cornell University, Indiana University, Wayne State, Loyola University and a host of others. In the end, it was determined that a professional organization which celebrated and promoted African-American economic sustenance and empowerment was not only needed buy long overdue, thereby paving the way for the formation of the NBMBAA. The two-day conference entitled, "Survival of Minority Business Students and Graduates in the Business World" was held April 3-4, in the auditorium of the University of Chicago's Center for Continuing Education (UIC). It was funded by a $10,000 grant from Metropolitan Applied Research Center Foundation (MARC), a subsidiary of the Ford Foundation. The purpose of the conference was to explore avenues for professional advancement and economic empowerment among Black MBAs, exchange ideas and information and determine whether there was a need for an organization that would serve as a nucleus for Black business professionals and MBA candidates. Approximately 34 universities were represented and over 150 minority students, faculty members, a distinguished minority businessmen from across the country were in attendance. There were participants from Howard, Purdue, the Wharton School of Business, Colombia, The University of Rochester, Stanford, Dartmouth, Loyola, Harvard, Cornell University, Berkeley, and a host of other schools. Businesses that were represented included DeValco, Inc. Management Information, Inc., Quaker Oats, Bank One, Chase Manhattan Bank and many more. Several questions were raised at the conference. Are graduate schools of business geared to the needs and interests of Black students? Where can a Black with an advanced degree go in corporate management? What are his alternatives to corporate employment? These questions remain relevant today. As the conference neared an end, it was unanimously determined that a national organization, which embraced and espoused the economic advancement of Black MBA candidates, professionals and entrepreneurs, was not only needed buy mandatory in order to satisfy and accomplish the diverse tasks which the conferees had designated for themselves and to address the growing needs and objectives of Black professionals. The country was then divided into regions - East, Midwest, and West in order to formulate proposals for the development of the national organization. On April 2, 1971, nine delegates from across the country returned to the UIC's Center for Continuing Education charged with the responsibility of collaborating and finalizing plans for the national organization. The end result of their collaboration was the genesis for what became the National Black MBA Association, Inc. (NBMBAA or "The Association"), a premier non-profit organization designed to embrace and encourage Black economic empowerment and independence. Today the NBMBAA is a tour-de-force, non-profit organization that boasts members and corporate partners throughout the United States and abroad. Its novel scholarship program has awarded over $5million to deserving minority students in undergraduate and graduate programs. The NBMBAA has expanded its outreach to include 45 chapters and 27 collegiate chapters. ======================== How To Download Today's Show •Can't listen live???

Log Onto: www.blogtalkradio.com/globalcarole Listen LIVE or Download Anytime ======================== 2013 started with a surprising announcement from the chief of one of America’s great cities. On March 28th Thomas Menino, announced that after 20 years and much consternation he would step down at the end of the year and not run for a sixth term in office. The mayor since 1993, Menino became Boston’s longest serving mayor, pushing and prodding the city from its provincial roots into one of the most ethnically diverse and globally connected cities in America. Big shoes to fill indeed. And not a moment passed before 24 would be replacements stepped up, filled out preliminary paperwork and announced their candidacy for mayor of America‘ 21st largest city...and the largest city in New England. That 24 was cut in half by the time required citizen signatures were gathered and requirements were met. And now there are 12 candidates all vying to fill the shoes of a Mayor so rooted in this metro area. Today we’ll profile all 12 candidates and one in particular: City Councilor Charles Yancey. Earlier this summer we interviewed Charlotte Golar Richie..and my goal is to upload audio clips of all 12 candidates by the September 24th Primary. It’s election time again, and we’re digging deep into Boston politics as we showcase the men and one woman who want to be the next mayor of Boston. ======================== Boston Mayoral Scorecard Source: Wikipedia Declared Candidates

You can read my blog at ebonyspeakers.com and see what it took for her to brave the ocean, dodge the sharks, bypass the jelly fish and triumphantly swim from Cuba to Florida in 53 hours. And what she couldn’t do at age 30, she brazenly completed at age 64!! An unwavering determination and new belief in her abilities as an older woman catapulted Diana Nyad into history. Age WORKED in her favor and demonstrated that endurance was a huge factor in her victory. Is it time for an upgrade in YOUR life? Or do you need an extreme makeover so that your career gets back on track? What does it take to reinvent yourself...now that “Baby Boomer” has become your middle name? Today’s guest. veteran employment professional and job coach, LaVerne Freeman, will walk us through the steps you need to transform your career path from a wishful dreamer to a Baby Boomin’ loving, Diana Nyad top producer. =============== Baby Boomer Profile Source: Wikipedia A baby boomer is a person who was born during the demographic Post–World War II baby boom between the years 1946 and 1964, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The phrase baby boom has been used since the late twentieth century to refer to a noticeable temporary increase in the birth rate. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the first recorded use of "baby boomer" is from 1970 in an article in the Washington Post. The generation can be segmented into two broadly defined cohorts: The Leading-Edge Baby Boomers are individuals born between 1946 and 1955, those who came of age during the Vietnam War era. This group represents slightly more than half of the generation, or roughly 38,002,000 people of all races. The other half of the generation was born between 1956 and 1964. Called Late Boomers, or Trailing-Edge Boomers, this second cohort includes about 37,818,000 individuals, according to Live Births by Age and Mother and Race, 1933–98, published by the Center for Disease Control's National Center for Health Statistics. ======================== How To Download Today's Show •Can't listen live???
