NSBE - Fall 2009 - 47

By Brian L. Jackson, NSBE National Alumni Extension Chair THEAENICHE a leading by example Programs Participation (Professional/ Technical Achievement) National Directive Linkage: Scholastic Achievement Focus: • Enable Increased Conference Participation • Benchmark AE Chapters’ Pre-College Initiative Tutorial Programs that address and increase SAT/ACT scores • Investigate Strategic Partnerships to aid in increasing the number of African Americans with PE/FE certifications s we RISE to take on the worst economic times we have seen, this generation of NSBE leaders must have a winner’s mindset. We must view this crisis as an opportunity to fulfill NSBE’s mission. Like those who have struggled in similar situations in the past, we must fight tirelessly, intelligently and creatively in the battle for our young people’s minds, to push them toward academic and professional success and service to their communities. As AE technical members committed to the mission of NSBE, we take on the critical task of steering our youth into the fields of science, technology, engineering and math, thus providing the American workplace with a greater diversity of thought. This year, we have pledged to set an example for youth, to serve as mentors and teachers, and otherwise to provide leadership through a “Top-Down, Cascade Approach” to achieve “Grassroots Impact.” This year’s AE Board is prepared to inspire and enable all NSBE-AE members to serve as effective ground troops to achieve our goals and objectives for the year. NSBE is relying on the Alumni Extension to help bring focus to the National Directives and carry them out in 2009–10. In this effort, we are looking to the following areas: Membership Development (Grassroots Impact) National Directive Linkage: Retention Focus: • Increase Alumni Chapter Viability and Growth Alumni Visibility (National-International Collaboration) National Directive Linkage: International Development Focus: • Communication/Marketing via New Media Streams “We must view this crisis as an opportunity to fulfill NSBE’s mission.” Alternative Revenue Generation (Revenue Development) National Directive Linkage: Economic Empowerment Focus: • Execute NSBEprenuer Program; Foster and Develop Technical Businesses This year, let’s keep our eyes on the prize in the midst of the turmoil and celebrate success in 2010. I look forward to working with you this year! ■ www.nsbe.org • career engineer • fall 2009 • 47
