Leaders Lead

Focus on acquisition, development, participation, and retention of leaders within our ranks. This is the lifeblood of the organization and creates the “pull” for partners and new members.

Win/Win Relationships

As leaders, we must develop valuable relationships with corporate sponsors driven largely by our ability to help them reach their own business goals. This capability, in turn, creates great growth opportunities for our chapter.

Connect the Community

Having the “right people on the bus” with strategic partnerships driving our growth we have great resources to become a prominent player in getting things done in the community. Hands on involvement by engaged leaders is the most effective way to build our brand equity and attract more leaders and build more relationships.

Established in 1970, the National Black MBA Association is dedicated to creating partnerships that result in creating intellectual and economic wealth in the black community. The NBMBAA was formed as a professional organization by a group of MBA candidates at the University of Chicago. The Organization was incorporated in the state of New York in 1974 as a non-profit organization. In partnership with over 400 of the country’s top business organizations, the association has inroads into a wide range of industries as well as the public and private sector. Yet all of NBMBAA’s partners have one thing in common–they are all committed to the organization’s goals and values.
