Gift the Power of Mentorship
In 2005, a group of visionary social entrepreneurs in Boston came together to address the economic complexities facing the country in the context of the new demography. Out of their discussions came an initiative to create a powerful channel for identifying and accelerating HispanicLatino talent that is ready to take on the increasing responsibilities of leadership and help our communities, organizations, and country thrive and prosper in the future. This initiative became CONEXION, driven by the growing demand for HispanicLatino talent from forward-thinking companies and organizations across all sectors. At the heart of our model is the concept of Social Capital - the understanding that social networks have inherent value. We recognized that many people at the margins lacked access to these connections and reciprocal networks of value, or "Conexiónes."
In our almost 20 years, we have supported hundreds of Latino professionals as they work to advance their careers and make meaningful contributions to their communities. We have provided training, mentorship, and networking opportunities to help them develop the skills and connections needed to succeed and thrive as leaders. But our work is far from done. We are committed to leveling the playing field and creating more opportunities for success and more significant impact.
Why Conexion Matters: At Conexion, we go beyond transforming careers—we're shaping the future of workplaces. Mentorship is our guiding light, opening doors and building communities. Our commitment to the transformative power of mentorship aligns with our broader mission: to cultivate a pipeline and network of Hispanic/Latino leaders, fostering workplaces that reflect our nation's evolving demographics.
Thank You for Being a Changemaker! Gracias for being part of the Conexión family and helping us create a brighter future for the country!
