Dennis P. Kimbro, Ph.D. to Present Closing Keynote At the African American Business Summit 2005
Dr. Dennis Kimbro will be presenting closing keynote on June 25, 2005 at the exciting African American Business Summit 2005. This will be held at the beautiful Westin Mission Hills Resport and Spa in Rancho Mirage (Palm Springs) California.
Los Angeles, CA, June 04, 2005 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Dennis Kimbro will deliver the closing keynote on Saturday, June 25 at the Wells Fargo sponsored African American Business Summit 2005. Themed BUSINESS REDEFINED: An Extraordinary Experience for Exceptional Business People, this four-day event is scheduled June 23rd - 26th at the Westin Mission Hills Resort and Spa in Rancho Mirage (Palm Springs), California. The African American Business Summit is hosted by Turning Point Magazine and the TPC Foundation.
Dr. Kimbro's writings have influenced readers from the streets of Melbourne, Australia, to Johannesburg, South Africa, to Seoul, South Korea, to Reykjavik, Iceland and from the boardrooms of General Motors, Walt Disney, Frito-Lay, and Wells Fargo - to name a few.
As a lecturer and researcher in the field of management, entrepreneurship and human potential, he encourages his readers to look within to extract the keys that underlie all accomplishment. He received his B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of Oklahoma, and a doctorate from Northwestern University where he studied wealth and poverty among underdeveloped countries. With his course work behind him, Dr. Kimbro combed the country interviewing scores of America's most notable achievers. Eventually his inquisition led to the question: How can impoverished African Americans pull themselves out of poverty and reach their full potential?
To broaden and enhance the scope of the project, Dr. Kimbro studied the methodology of Napoleon Hill, author of the phenomenal best seller Think and Grow Rich. After a personal meeting with W. Clement Stone, president of the Napoleon Hill Foundation, Dr. Kimbro was commissioned to update and complete Hill's original manuscript. Think and Grow Rich: A Black Choice, the results of Dr. Kimbro's and Hill's efforts, distills the secrets of success contained in the lives of peak performing men and women, and reveals how readers can utilize these keys to make their dreams come true.
His honors include various awards bestowed by the business community as well as the Dale Carnegie “Personal Achievement” award. He is the Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Clark Atlanta University School of Business Administration.
In 1996, he served as one of eight national judges for the prestigious Ernst & Young USA Today Entrepreneur of the Year held in Palm Springs, California.
He has addressed the Notre Dame ‘Fighting Irish’ football team as well as the Kansas City Royals Baseball team. He has appeared on the Today Show, Larry King, CNN, and has been featured on the pages of the Success! Magazine, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and USA Today on numerous occasions sharing the keys of success and achievement. One of Dr. Kimbro’s highest honors occurred when he was requested to keynote Grambling State University’s Coach Eddie Robinson’s farewell tribute. As the author of “Daily Motivations for African American Success” and the highly acclaimed “What Makes the Great Great: Strategies for Extraordinary Achievement,” his fourth book, “What Keeps Me Standing: A Black Grandmother’s Guide to Peace, Hope & Inspiration” (Doubleday), has appeared on several best sellers lists.
