The high school students were presented with college-level business cases from which they developed business solutions. This year’s case was Samsung Electronics. The Austin team hypothetically presented to the Chairman of Samsung a strategy that would allow Samsung to achieve “Tier One” status as an iconic brand. The students were judged by a panel of business professionals who scored points for analysis, quality of presentation and feasibility of their recommendations.
Austin students under the leadership of team captain, Jasmine Lee, team Iconic Strategic Design was composed of Kenny Crocket, Deron Octave, Denise Manning and Olivia Brown, all members of the Austin Chapter of the Leaders of Tomorrow ® Program. This was the first time that the Austin chapter has fielded a team in the competition held annually by the National Black MBA Association.
In addition to the cash/scholarship prizes, they will be flown to Dallas in August to present the case to ExxonMobile. They will also receive an all-expense paid trip to the NBMBAA National Conference in New Orleans this September.
Bill Louden and Carmaleta Williams were the team chaperones as well as part of a dedicated group of Austin NBMBAA chapter members who volunteered their time working with the Leaders of Tomorrow ® students and provided coaching for the competition.
