The future generations of young leaders of color are some of those most in need of positive role models, and Michael DeVaul of the YMCA is one the leading voices in this discussion.
A long-time community leader in Charlotte, NC, Michael has worked with the YMCA professionally for more than 40 years. It was in 2020 that Michael stepped into a new role working on a national level to help provide leadership training, programming and resources to the next generation of leaders of color.
Michael DeVaul joins host Doug McVadon for a discussion about
what the needs of future leaders are now and how we can step up to
meet those needs. Michael discusses how his family upbringing and
support from institutions in Evanston, IL helped teach him
perseverance, and how he plans on instilling some of those values
in the next generation.
