The NEXUS experience has enriched my view of Memphis and I have gained a clearer vision of the opportunities in this great city. After hearing one of the monthly speakers, I took inventory of the plans I have for my life and how they will affect a small piece of this awesome city. By far the most impactful part of this program is meeting and connecting with my protégé. Sharon Bailey, NEXUS Mentor, Manager, Application & Development, ServiceMaster
My NEXUS experience has been priceless with one of if not the best NEXUS Mentor. The NEXUS Leadership team knows what it takes to build the next generation of leaders in Memphis. Through my relationship with my NEXUS mentor, in addition to our monthly speaker series, I have gained invaluable experience, blessed to receive awards and new job opportunities. NEXUS has truly been a blessing to my life and I will continue to be an advocate for the NEXUS Leadership Program to other young professionals
“I appreciate the ability to meet many different people with diverse backgrounds who all share a common goal of continuing to make Memphis the best city it can be. My protégé was such a great young man with a heart to learn and improve himself. The passion that he and the NEXUS program have for our city have been an inspiration to me and it fills me with excitement for the future.” Joe Williams, NEXUS Mentor, President, Agape North
“I am appreciative to the complete NEXUS experience especially the pairing of my mentor. She has graciously taken me by the hand and guided me through personal and professional situations. Our relationship will go beyond the NEXUS year.” Whitney Clifton, NEXUS Protégé, Client Services Advisor, Metropolitan Bank
“I didn’t exactly know what to expect from the NEXUS experience, but having been through it, It has been an experience of a lifetime. The speakers were fantastic, but more importantly, it was an honor to get to speak into the life of a younger person going through the journey of balancing work, marriage, and all that life throws at you. It’s a great way to give back to the next generation of leaders here in Memphis.”
NEXUS Comprises Next Generation of Millennium Leaders – It’s been an awesome experience! Being new to Memphis, NEXUS opened my eyes to the great opportunities that this great city possesses. Having the chance to learn from key leaders throughout the Greater Memphis Area has given me hope that I too, can make a difference in the lives of individuals that live here.
