PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Next Generation Leaders of Color focuses on two of the critical content areas that pose significant challenges for many community-based managers and leaders.
The first challenge is to supervise, develop, inspire, and influence people.
The second challenge is to develop business acumen with an emphasis onfinancial strategy, comprehension, and literacy.
Using a multicultural framework that examines cultural dimensions in managing people and organizational finances, this program focuses on these two areas, deepening the management and leadership capabilities of individual participants, while increasing the overall health and sustainability of their current and future organizations of employment.

PROGRAM HISTORY
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
“Before this program, I looked at other leaders and I thought there were special. Now I see that I have the tools and knowledge to join them, to speak up, to participate, and to lead.”
