The Organization

Management Leadership for Tomorrow (MLT, www.ml4t.org<http://www.ml4t.org>) is 
a national non-profit that has made ground-breaking progress developing the 
next generation of African-American, Hispanic, and Native American leaders in 
major corporations, non-profit organizations, and entrepreneurial ventures.

MLT is the nation's #1 source of minority talent for the top business schools 
(nearly 40% of the minority MBA students at HBS, Wharton and Kellogg are MLT 
alumni) and for many of the nation's leading corporations including Google, 
Goldman Sachs, PepsiCo, McKinsey, Citi, and Target. Leading philanthropies such 
as New Profit and the Starr Foundation are also long-term strategic partners. 
MLT has been featured on the cover of Fortune and in CNN's "Black in America 2: 
Tomorrow's Leaders."

MLT is passionate about helping individuals achieve their full potential. It 
does so by equipping underrepresented minorities with the hard and soft skills, 
career roadmap, coaching, mentoring, and door-opening relationships required to 
become the high-impact business and community leaders of tomorrow. MLT creates 
value through structured programs:

 1.  College Programs flagship program is the Career Preparation Program (CP) 
for college juniors and seniors preparing to get on the career fast-track. 
Through one-on-one coaching, extensive skill development seminars, exposure to 
prestigious employers, and access to a vast alumni network, they are positioned 
for a powerful launch to their career.
 2.  MBA Programs (MBA Prep & MBA Professional Development)

      MBA Prep is for young professionals seeking to gain admission to a top 
MBA program. By clearly defining their passions and career goals, they are 
positioned to use the MBA as a springboard to long-term career success.

      MBA Professional Development is for MBA Prep Fellows who have recently 
been admitted to business school (approximately six months prior to 
matriculation) and first- and second-year MBA students preparing to make a 
successful post-MBA career transition.

 1.  Career Advancement Program (CAP) is for senior leaders seeking to reach 
the C-level. In partnership with the Yale University School of Management, CAP 
has created a talent development curriculum to help mid-level leaders refine 
their problem-solving, relationship building, and communication skills.

These programs have successfully graduated over 2,500 alumni to date.

The Director of MBA Prep will be responsible for developing the strategic

approximately 200 high-potential, underrepresented minority young

seasoned academic leader, with a successful track record of launching, managing 
and evaluating high performing schools and educational programs, and a 
demonstrated interest in combining new instructional approaches and 
technologies into an integrated, boarding school program. SEED wishes to hire 
an educational leader with a holistic view of education, who understands rigor 
and excellence, and subscribes unconditionally to a growth mindset. This 
important new leader for SEED will be a program visionary who is grounded in an 
understanding of the people and systems that underlie an institution of 
inspired learning. The Chief Schools Officer must be an entrepreneurial leader, 
with exceptional interpersonal and communication skills, comfortable in a fast

Apple 
Inc.<http://www.bizjournals.com/profiles/company/us/ca/cupertino/apple_inc/17304/>
 is taking the term "power walk" to a new dimension.

The company has secured a patent for a system where the motion of a person's 
body could charge an electronic device.

The patent, available 
here,<http://appft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PG01&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=%2220120235510%22.PGNR.&OS=DN/20120235510&RS=DN/20120235510?ystfuv>
 would use "electromagnetic induction using printed coils" to create a charge, 
according to the patent application.

TechCrunch 
reports<http://techcrunch.com/2012/09/20/apple-patents-a-method-for-motion-based-charging-that-could-make-its-way-to-future-iphones/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Techcrunch+%28TechCrunch%29&utm_content=Google+Reader>
 that it is a technology that takes a lot of space, but may use a printing 
process similar to what is used in circuit boards to make it work in a small 
device like one of Cupertino-based Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhones. TechCrunch 
says its likely the motion-based charge wouldn't be intended to fully charge 
the device, just to keep it going throughout the day.

and convening of allies;
 *   Build and maintain relationships with stakeholders across the country 
andcreate a diverse constituency of support for reform.

Qualifications: Required Qualifications:

 *   7+ years of advocacy, legal, or policy experience;

strong working relationships with and among a diverse group of actors;

skills; and

 *   Knowledge of legal and policy issues surrounding education including 
school discipline;
 *   Experience designing and implementing advocacy campaigns;
 *   Legislative or litigation experience;
 *   Budgeting and planning experience; and
