Black Enterprise Magazine is celebrating forty years of inspiring African American business owners to excellence. I had the pleasure of attending the celebration this year and it was amazing. The energy and emotion of the event was overwhelming. Mr. Graves shared stories of the beginning days of the magazine when it was just him and his wife working long hours to produce a quality product. He saluted long-time sponsors who continued to support the project year after year, such as the host, Exxon Mobile. In addition, he encouraged entrepreneurs and small business owners to stay the course in providing quality service and products to our customers.
All year, Black Enterprise has been featuring special segments around their celebration. I highly recommend reading about the legacy of Mr. Earl Graves: B.E. Titans - Mr. Earl Graves Sr in addition to the other great articles and business insight offered.
I am proud of the history of Black Enterprise Magazine and grateful to announce that I'll be featured again in the October 2010 Issue! There's no link just yet, but make sure you pick up your copy! In the meantime here are a few articles below in which I've been quoted.
