UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT SERIES - 4% is NOT enough in LEADERSHIP, we start with Chairman Randall C Harlan, IMPACT

MAY 14, 2021

MILWAUKEE || The city of Milwaukee is the birthplace of many things.  However, African American history is deliberately MISSING considering ALL the contributions African Americans have made and continue to make.

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT series by MPA-LLC is one way to change this LOSS of RICH history of a People of Amazing Tenacity.  We, the People subscribe to 50%.  Yes. 50%.  

Why limit the denied rich and unknown history to such a LOW number.

Deny the PARIAH tag that has come as a result of being a victor over the brutality and denunciation of White Supremacy.

African Americans were brought to the shores of the American Indian race by Caucasians.  They were sold (by Africans and Caucasians in Africa) and stolen from the shores of Africa.  African Americans were treated inhumanely.  They have astoundingly been able to do the unthinkable - espouse spiritual HOPE, the temerity that is ingrained in being powerfully successful - no matter what.  It is heard from Maya Angelo, American Poet, who said, "Still We Rise".

We start with the notion of the huge gap in Boards of Directors across America by talking about JAMMAL SIMMONS' book, 

"The 4% Problem". 

Who is RANDALL C HARLAN?

IMPACT is proud to announce the appointment of Randall C. Harlan as Chairman of its Board of Directors. Harlan, who joined IMPACT’s board in 2011, is Sr. Vice President, Panther Workforce Solutions. He succeeds Kim M. Dougherty of Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin who led the organization to its first $5 million budget in 2020, IMPACT’s 60^th anniversary.

 

“This is a significant moment in the history of our organization,” said John Hyatt, IMPACT President & CEO. “We are fortunate to have someone of Randall Harlan’s caliber and experience step up during this critical time. Randall is a workforce solutions visionary with a proven track record of execution. He is a strong communicator and relationship builder who exemplifies IMPACT’s core values of customer focus, collaboration and value-added. Furthermore, Randall has a solid understanding of our programs and role as Southeastern Wisconsin’s leader in comprehensive assessment, crisis resolution, and system improvement.”

Harlan grew up in Gary, IN just a few houses down from the Jackson 5. He received a bachelor’s degree from Indiana University, where he pledged Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity. He remains active in the fraternity as a member of the Milwaukee Alumni Chapter, and is a founding board member of the Kappa Alpha Psi Foundation of Southeastern Wisconsin, a charitable organization focused on mentoring young men. In his spare time, he plays golf, visits family in Florida and roots for the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Brewers, Wisconsin Badgers, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and the Milwaukee Bucks.  Taken from IMPACT.

Randall Harlan has been a board member for 10 years.  

He should not be considered the "skunk at the garden party" of IMPACT - a statement used in Jammal Simmons's interview with Michel Martin, Amanpour & Co. to define those "only 1" African American on a corporate board.
