"The Bay Area Executive Leadership Accelerator program provided me with insight into what direction to take my career next. I stepped into the class eyes, ears, and mind wide open and walked away with my mind blown away from the content shared and knowledge from guest speakers. I now have more confidence in how to approach my next career journey and methods to tackle the challenges that will come as a leader. Thank you Berkeley and Urban League of Greater San Francisco Bay Area for providing this opportunity."

"I enjoyed the program because it allowed me to connect with other like-minded individuals. I did not feel alone in my experiences in the workforce. The program has certainly increased my level of confidence - that I can effectuate change by stepping into the act of being a leader. Leadership, not as a title or position, but as an action!"

"Take it, you will learn content that otherwise takes about 7-10 years to learn on your own."

"One of the most valuable things about this program was actively dedicating 2-4 hours per week to focus on growing as a black leader. That meant proactively making time outside of the weekly meetings to review the contentmodules and reflect on what was learned. The other most valuable thing about the program for me was meeting other black leaders that I may not have met otherwise."
