Leadership Beyond the Resume
Leadership Beyond the Resume (LBTR) is a one-day conference held by the Multicultural Business Program in winter quarter that focuses on preparing emerging leaders from historically underrepresented backgrounds for the opportunities and challenges that they will face in their careers.
This year, MBP’s goal is to enhance the overall quality of LBTR for our students. This includes developing interactive workshops and inviting speakers who will share their inspiring stories about the challenges they have and are currently continuing to face in regards to growing as a professional and coming from a marginalized background and will spread light on how the two interact.
