Analyses of corporate diversity data have shown that Diverse Professionals are Underrepresented in Executive Positions in most of our Nations largest Corporations. We know that you must have a story to share, lessons learned or expertise that can help our High Potential Professionals of color gain the skills required to rise to the top. Join this exciting transformation by contacting us at volunteer@gbmad.org.
Here’s our Story ….GBMAD (Give Back Make A Difference, Inc.) is a non profit organization whose objective is to develop High Potential Students and Professionals to go beyond Middle Management and reach their Executive Suite Aspirations. We do this by providing High Impact Leadership Training, and an Ability to Leverage Cultural Values, Uniqueness, others’ Social Biases and Retiree Experiences. GBMAD believes in equality for all, and does not support policies that provide preferential treatment to specific groups, such as affirmative action.
The term social biases differs from discrimination in that social biases are prejudicial beliefs, whereas discrimination refers to prejudicial behavior. There are laws to protect people from discrimination, and organizations that are helping to eradicate it, but there’s not focus on social biases. Our belief is that social biases will always exist, and therefore, to reach one’s full potential, it is to everyone’s benefit to address them.
Philip Wah is Founder and President/CEO of GBMAD. After retiring from 30 years of successfully managing small and large profit driven organizations, he is fulfilling his passion to help others grow and succeed. Having been raised with Asian cultural values, Mr. Wah was fortunate to take leadership training that focused on the importance of social biases in the corporate environment. This was the single most important training that he received throughout his career, and he wants others to have this same opportunity. With a desire to make a positive enduring affect on people’s lives, GBMAD’s relationships with individuals extend through most of their life, from high school thru their early years of retirement.
GBMAD is always seeking others that are inspired to give back and make a difference in other’s lives. There is no better joy in life, than giving.
