It has exposed me to exemplary motivational speakers and the opportunity to network internationally at the National Black MBA conference in Atlanta and New Orleans.” Monsuru Alasi “This project has made me realise that by not limiting myself I am overcoming the negative stereotype image of young Black youths who are only interested in “MTV Base culture” of music and sports.” Micheal Williams “I would not be who I am today if I did not have this life changing experience and all I can say is THANK YOU thank you to all the UK chapter for fundraising and making this all possible for me. THANK YOU to Lindsay and Mrs. Mac and mainly to Vallin and his family. “ Leonie Ogie Durban, South Africa “I attended the 2009 conference in New Orleans and was amazed when Magic Johnson told us how he was able turned from basketball star to entrepreneur as well as a philanthropist and motivational speakers” Mayowa Sofekun LOT alumni Monsuru Alasi graduate from Warwick University, 2012 LOT alumni Micheal Williams graduate of University of Sussex, 2012 What's it all about, read the leaflet "Leaders of Tomorrow" which includes: aim; objectives; selection criteria; benefits to learners and annual events.
