Strategies for Cultivating and Promoting Latino Talent

  • Devise a dual strategy of separate-but-equal AND integrated programs so we both develop strong Latino institutions while integrating with mainstream institutions and transforming them into stakeholders for Latino success.
  • Cultivate, discover and place Latino leaders in strategic positions – boards, commissions, capital markets, philanthropy
  • Develop a database of Latinos that are qualified to participate in decision making bodies on public policy
  • Increase capacity of Latino professionals in private equity and venture capital either as general partners in top tier funds or creation of Latino-managed funds or some sort of farm team strategy to develop these professionals
  • Develop a science/engineering pipeline of Latino professionals
  • Build private sector based Latino leadership/participation in education to compliment and expand base of non-profit Latino leaders

    Although it’s implied within the bullet points, the mentoring aspect cannot be over-emphasized. The community needs to recognize its leaders convince them to participate in the mentoring of its younger members.
