1. Wondering what’s new with MAFA?

    Well, we kicked off our second annual Google Mentorship Program on July 15th with a nice crowd of mentees from Chicago, NYC, San Francisco and more! 

    With our mentees/mentors at the luncheon and a few attending via the virtual worlds, our guest speaker - Bonita Stewart, Managing Director of US Sales at Google, spoke to the group on preparing a life and career for yourself. 

    Looking for a good read? Bonita recommended reading Nelson Mandela’s book “Fifteen Lessons on Life, Love and Courage”. 

     Available on Amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/Mandelas-Way-Fifteen-Lessons-Courage/dp/0307460681

    If we had to sum up on theme or piece of advice Bonita left for the 2011 mentees it’d be: “have a plan for your career and take opportunities that follow that plan, not just for money or a title”

    If you’d like more information, or are interested in becoming a MAFA leader, please email us at aafmafa@gmail.com. In the meantime, enjoy these pics!
