Who We Are<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]The Boston Chapter was founded in 1986, and attracts a diverse group of students and professionals who are visionaries, leaders, and change agents. The organization\u2019s membership base is comprised of both MBAs and professionals that do not have an MBA.<\/p>\n

In 1991, visionary MBAs and educators associated with the Boston, New York, and New Jersey chapters launched the Leaders of Tomorrow program (LOT), a leadership development training program geared towards high school students, at the National Black MBA Annual Conference and Exposition in St. Louis, with key initial financial and leadership investment from M&M Mars and Bentley University. In subsequent years, a design team, made up largely of NBMBAA members and educators from the Boston Chapter, developed a unique series of workshops to help young people at risk of underperforming to realize their full potential. In 2016, the Boston Chapter is celebrating its 25th Anniversary of founding LOT.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1749877126918{margin-top: 20px !important;}”]<\/p>\n
