The Regional Mid-Level Managers' Symposium series was launched in 2000 as the local version of the annual Mid-Level Managers' Symposium held in Washington, DC each October in conjunction with the annual Recognition Awards Dinner.

Smaller in size (maximum 100 participants) and more intensive in focus, the regional Symposium offers opportunities for corporations to enrich their leadership development efforts for African-American managers with three or more years of corporate management experience. Various symposium events also support professional development for multiracial teams with accountabilities for Human Resources, Organizational Development and Diversity.

The all day Symposiums run from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m., are interactive, focused primarily to address the needs of African American managers and managers with diversity accountabilities. Symposium format includes plenary sessions, small breakout groups, Q&A, and offers participants opportunities to:

  • Interact with ELC executives
  • Connect with a peer network of executives from diversity-oriented companies
  • Examine career strategies and insights with Dr. Price Cobbs, an internationally renowned psychiatrist, author and corporate management consultant to Fortune 500 companies.
  • Be exposed to corporate diversity resources such as Pro Mosaic, a diversity assessment tool, and
  • Get information about forthcoming ELC events.

Regional Symposium topics have included "The Art of Fitting Into Corporate America" and "Unscrambling the Diversity Puzzle."
