Leadership Education for Asian Pacifics
I’ll be attending the LEAP conference in San Jose, CA. I put my name into the barrell back in 2005, and finally a spot opened up for me yesterday. This event will run from Feb 26 - March 2.
Leadership Education for Asian Pacifics, Inc. (LEAP) has been intent on “growing leaders” within the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities across the country. When LEAP opened its doors 25 years ago, it had a simple yet powerful idea: that in order for AAPI communities to realize their full potential and to foster robust participation in the larger democratic process, those communities would have to begin producing leaders who could advocate and speak on their behalf.
Through the creation of culturally relevant workshops and programs, 125,000 people across the nation have participated in over 2,500 leadership development programs, organizational development workshops, career management and diversity trainings for an extensive roster of clients, including colleges and universities, community and student organizations, federal and state government agencies and Fortune 1000 companies across the country.

I’m really looking forward to meeting all the people from various organizations. It will be really interesting networking opportunity.
