Leadership By Design: Ensuring Our Legacy
Leaders are not born, they're developed. Either because of opportunity or necessity, someone takes charge and leads the way. Effective leadership is a destination achieved through careful thought, consideration and action.

The 4th Annual NAACP Leadership 500 Summit is rapidly approaching. Participants will gather May 22-25 at the Phoenician Resort and Spa in Scottsdale Arizona to attend workshops, interactive panel discussions and general session led by prominent private sector, non-profit, corporate, and community leaders.

Participants will have the opportunity to attend “Economic Parity and Wealth Creation: A Path to Greater Wealth Creation,” a workshop dedicated to answering questions about owning your own business and sharing information about other wealth building opportunities.
