Apply here. We hope to see you in Denver in June! See the program below, and here are some tips:
Student Tips to Make the Most out of GlobalMindED Conference 2022
- Mindset- Get in to a success mindset. Congratulations on your path of persistence and success! You deserve to be here and you have a valuable voice at the table of power and influence at GlobalMindED.
- Drop the Imposter Syndrome- If you have ever or currently feel that you have been an imposter or don’t deserve to be where you, gently release those thoughts. You deserve it and this is your time to shine. Embrace it!
- Define Your Elevator Pitch – Think about the best way to share your gifts, talents and abilities in one sentence. When you introduce yourself to people you don’t know, share your elevator pitch so that they know what makes you special and what makes you passionate.
- Write and Polish Your Resume. Get out your resume or write your one-page resume. Show it to your advisor or mentor to work with them to polish it so that it can be the best it can be. Bring 30+ copies or more to share at the Friday afternoon Industry Market Place so that you can network for internships and jobs.
- Study the Speakers on the Website. Go to GlobalMindED.org, click on Conference 2022, then click on Speakers. Who do you relate to? Who is a field that you want to be in? Who inspires you? Make a List of the People You Want to Meet; at one of the receptions, at their session or at one of the two breakfasts on Thursday and Friday. Be strategic so that you can make the most out of every person that you meet. They will be delighted to meet you and learn about your dreams and goals.
- Identify the Sessions You Want to Attend. Study the program and make a list of the sessions each hour that you want to attend. Get there early and sit in the front row- it is like class at college. You want to be fully engaged and let the speakers know of your enthusiasm for their session.
- See Yourself in the Future. Each of the people you meet are role models for you and you will see yourself in the future. Also, you are the inspiration to the people you will meet because you inspire them about our emerging world leaders. You are this global leader!
- Know Your Worth. You are very valuable, and you will be understanding your role as a generous leader as you pay this experience forward once you return to campus. Think about how you can open doors for other as those have opened doors for you during your three days at GlobalMindED 2022. You are a generous, global citizen and you are committed to helping others be their best and do their best. This is what it means to be a GlobalMindED Leader.
- Prepare to Network! Whether you are an introvert or an extravert, have an energy and an attitude to meet other people through introducing yourself and sharing what is special about you. This is an opportunity to share your spirit with those who have a kindred spirit and are dedicated to your success. Don’t be afraid to open up, trust the process and be positive about sharing with others all that is within you. We are support networks and the champions of your dreams and goals!

GlobalMindED 2021 Year In Review
As COVID kept us inside and productive, we continued to pivot to meet the needs of our partners, constituents, colleges, and the students we serve. Here is a summary of our year and our outcomes:
-
Second Year Virtual - 2021 GlobalMindED Conference over 10 weeks with 226 diverse leaders. Launched with Earth Week in April and concluded in late June. Presented 46 sessions the majority of which were led by people of color featuring students/panelists. Sessions averaged 100 virtual registrants each and garnered 5,500+ views on YouTube.
-
Conducted 41 Virtual Equity Sessions with 205 diverse leaders which aired monthly in Health, Tech, STEM, K-12 Higher Education and Foundations and Funders with viewers including students, staff, faculty, and corporate partners attending to learn how to be more culturally responsive, direct and positive resolving some of our most difficult equity issues across the disciplines. Sessions averaged 80 registrants each and garnered 6,300+ YouTube views.
-
2021 Inclusive Leader Awards (virtual). 2,500+ signed up to watch live and 1,000+ viewed on YouTube. These dynamic, diverse, inclusive leaders across 15 sectors, introduced by the 2020 winners are the mega role models for the students we serve. Watch the trailer and full event.
-
Served 400+ First Gen students nationally through individual students at 26 colleges and 10 college specific collaboratives (4 Hispanic Serving Institutions, 3 Historically Black Colleges, 1 Native American Serving college, and 2 state colleges serving primarily First Gen to college students). Some colleges selected the Strong Summer Start Leadership Programs, some chose self-directed KEYS to SUCCESS content, some selected coaching training and others deployed GlobalMindED professional mentors to guide their students in personal and business skills. Several college partners leveraged all these resources for their First Gen, diverse and minoritized freshmen virtually during COVID. The basis of these results provides the foundation for our work in 2022, delivering colleges the option of an integrated program that provides the bridge into college, leadership training, freshmen year success, and professional guidance from diverse business leaders serving as mentors.
-
Published our First Gen Student Leaders Speak report with Every Learner Everywhere in May. 25 First Gen GlobalMindED Ambassadors shared their insights for college presidents, policy makers and CEO’s – their needs, COVID impacted struggles, their hope for the future, and what services they want.
-
Published 365 daily newsletters of the diverse role models who are the examples for the students we serve, with cumulative views of 4,000,000+ readers in all social media channels.
-
Led 10 sessions virtually with partners from GlobalMindED’s network of leaders: Davos with FQ, the World Education Summit, the World Academy of Art and Science Future of Education Summit, Female Quotient Africa International Dinner, Points of Light Foundation Corporate Service Council Opening Session, United Nations 76th Anniversary, Pearson Gulf Region Training, ASU Remote, Grantmakers for Education annual conference, and launch of the Amazon Board Bound Diverse Board Series.
-
Virtual Events this year in all channels. 10,400+ registrants + 12,800+ YouTube = 23,200+ viewers.
Join us at our LIVE conference in June to connect First Gen, diverse, minoritized and poverty affected students to the “hidden curriculum,” role models, experiences, internships, and jobs. Our technology team is masterminding the AI to scale these programs.
We are grateful to our sponsors, individual donors, GlobalMindED Board members, Executive Leadership Council, and each of our committees and advisory teams who made the initiatives above possible, especially the expansion of college-specific student programs during COVID times. We also thank our business mentors who dedicated countless hours helping GlobalMindED students succeed by providing a much-needed professional bridge from academia to the world of work, inclusive leadership, and financial security.
