New York City Summit


When Norville Barrington, Director of Business Development for the Metro New York Chapter National Black MBA Association, contacted me a couple of weeks ago regarding an upcoming Summit at the S&P Global corporate office in NYC, I was duty-bound to attend if my schedule permitted. Fortunately, I had the availability and was able to participate, and I am glad I did. As a result, I was able to participate in a “Design Thinking” workshop facilitated by Aisha Taylor, Community Engagement & Partnerships with Google. Aisha provided valuable insight into the definition and a blueprint on the process of design thinking. Also, I learned about the "Grow with Google NYC Learning Center" initiative that offers free digital skills training to all New Yorkers. Then, I had the good fortune to witness Bonin Bough, the Host of "Cleveland Hustles" with LeBron James and Maverick Carter, as executive producers deliver the Keynote Luncheon, which was inspiring and full of invaluable information that is relevant now and well into the future. The energy he brought in his presentation was phenomenal, and his message of challenging the status quo as well as strategies on how to unlock personal exponential growth was fascinating. Have a nice weekend! hashtagnyc Dianne Francel Caraos Bautista
