Building leaders with the commitment, relationships and capital necessary to drive business growth and significant social change

It's Not just about your mba...

Since 2002, MLT has quickly staked an influential place in the historically underdeveloped career paths of minorities in America. In partnership with over 40 blue-chip corporations, top MBA programs and other non-profit organizations, MLT works with its Fellows at the critical points that define their career trajectories: college to early career, early career to MBA and mid-career to senior management. The MBA Prep program from MLT offers disciplined, groundbreaking guidance for the rigorous business school application process as well as gives you access to a high performing peer community that will change your career trajectory.

It's about your future.

MLT equips underrepresented minorities with the hard and soft skills, career roadmap, coaching, mentoring, and door-opening relationships required to become high-impact business and community leaders. Virtually every senior leader would say that they would not be where they are today without some or all of those key ingredients, yet they are not taught in even the best classrooms and instead are delivered through informal channels to which minorities have limited access. MLT formalizes access to these ingredients and significantly broadens the pipeline of senior minority leaders who can catalyze change in our communities.
