The Alumni Society was established with a simple and critical goal: connect Latino executives who graduated from top universities and advance Latino leadership in corporate America.
Our mission is to rewrite vague ideas about diversity and inclusion as tangible, actionable steps. Since our launch, we’ve proven through events, media, and the quality of our membership that The Alumni Society provides a valuable and necessary service. The best spokespeople for The Alumni Society are our members. Hear why our society is valuable to a few of our high-caliber executives.
“The Leadership Summit allows me to network with exceptional executives who happen to be Latinas and Latinos. The Alumni Society has been a source of guidance and inspiration. When asked to chair the board of directors of Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services, I accepted the role to help address the stigma of mental illness in California’s Latino communities and to follow The Alumni Society’s advice to begin preparing for future BOD roles by gaining governance experience with non-profit operating agencies.”
“Last year’s gathering inspired me to think about how we Latino professionals have to continue opening doors for ourselves and others in leadership roles. So, when nominated for a board of director’s position with NALP, I didn’t refuse. Attending The Alumni Society’s events will give me access to the knowledge, support, and further inspiration from our network to take on the challenge of board membership!”
“I learned early on that I can’t do it alone. When I was visiting San Francisco, The Alumni Society made an introduction between Eliana Murillo from Google, and myself, and she’s been a great supporter and collaborator. Similarly, our newest Latina advisory board member and the highest ranking Latina at Lyft, Veronica Juarez, became involved after meeting, thanks to being connected by The Alumni Society. That’s what the organization is so good at, and we want to be part of driving wealth innovation for this very network.”
