NATIONAL BLACK INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY LEADERSHIP ORGANIZATION HELPS CONNECT CURRENT AND FUTURE BLACK TECHNOLOGY LEADERS & CREATES NATIOWIDE SUPPORT NETWORK

ATLANTA, GEORGIA - The National Black Information Technology Leadership Organization, or NBITLO, is a national organization created especially for African Americans (although membership is open to anyone) who is interested in pursuing a professional technology leadership career, executive technology leadership position or currently holds such position. The association provides those with information technology leadership aspirations with the necessary information and support that may not be currently available to them but is important for success. The founding advisor of NBITLO, Andrew West saw a great need for such a positive, proactive networking and supportive professional networking organization and called a number of people from all over the country with an interest information technology leadership and together they brought this vision to life. West is a visionary passionate about creating a model for Information Technology Leadership, and sharing it through the vision of NBITLO.

African Americans are currently underrepresented in Information Technology Leadership positions making up roughly 3% of all technology leaders in America’s workforce. Just as interesting, a very large percentage of all African Americans who apply for technology leadership positions are not poised to compete in today’s competitive market. NBITLO intends to do its part to change those negative statistics by supporting its members and equipping them with the necessary technology leadership skills, resources, and strategic technology visioning to help them in the fiercely competitive world of information technology leadership as well as providing access to human and informational resources to help them succeed and grow when they get there.

Members will be provided with the opportunity to learn more about facing the challenges associated with applying to information technology leadership positions and the highly demanding and competitive corporate technology climate once they secure a position. Through modern technology, members can engage in information-sharing, participate in book discussions, and develop networking relationships with others with similar goals that can support them through what can be a challenging process. All members will not only have the unique opportunity to network, and establish and maintain relationships with fellow information technology leadership aspirants, but also with current Information Technology Managers, Directors, Chief Technology Officers, Chief Information Officers, Chief Executive Officers and Vice Presidents of Technology.

All are encouraged to visit the new website at www.NBITLO.org. To learn more about the organization, benefits of membership and how to charter a city-wide professional chapter, or college campus chapter at your school be sure to stay tuned to NBITLO online.
