Despite gains in education and employment opportunities since the civil rights era, black professionals remain significantly underrepresented in leadership advancement and wealth generation. This needs to change, and Black Professionals Month is a strategic initiative to ignite the change Black professionals need to see.
A world where Black professionals have gained a proportionate presence in leadership roles and have built strong collaborations and sustained wealth.
Celebrate, connect, and collaborate with Black professionals worldwide to increase leadership roles and generate sustained wealth-building.
