🚨 PSA: If you’re still out here making all the decisions yourself, we need to talk. 👀 You can’t be CEO, CFO, COO, and the HR department all at once. 🙅🏾♀️ It’s time to trust your team! 🎯 They’ve got skills too. 💡 Trying to do it all? That’s a one-way ticket to 🏙️ “Burnout Boulevard,” and as a once great philosopher said "Ain't nobody got time fo' dat". Your team isn’t just here to watch—let them shine! 🧠 Even LeBron needs a squad to win championships. 🏆 And if Beyoncé can have 24 backup dancers and still kill it, so can you. 💃 You’re not in this alone, so stop playing solo and start building together. 💪🏾✨ #TrustYourTeam #DelegateWithPurpose #MicromanagingIsOut #WeSeeYou #LeadersLead

With a clear vision and some incredible talent on board, they hit the ground running—powered by coffee and pure determination. ⚙️ They didn’t just participate; they dominated.

🦾 How to Use the ACT Model for Rapid Prototyping at a Hackathon 😎 In the fast-paced world of startups, quickly turning an idea into a working prototype is crucial. Hackathons—intense, 24-hour events where teams collaborate to build new projects—offer the perfect setting for this. By leveraging the ACT Model (Architect, Creative, Techie), you can efficiently develop a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that could be your next big success. 🚀 What Is Rapid Prototyping? Rapid prototyping involves swiftly creating a basic version of a product to test its functionality and gather feedback. In a hackathon, this means focusing on speed and practicality, with the ACT Model providing a balanced approach to maximize your team’s effectiveness. 🛠️ How to Maximize a 24-Hour Hackathon for MVP Development 🎯 Define Your Objective with the Architect The Architect shapes the vision and strategy. Before the hackathon, clarify what you aim to achieve, ensuring the team stays focused. AI Tool: Use Notion AI to quickly outline and structure your project objectives, keeping everyone aligned. 🎨 Leverage the Creative for Design The Creative designs the user experience (UX) and visuals. Collaborate early to create wireframes that reflect your MVP’s core features. AI Tool: Use Figma with AI plugins like Autoflow to rapidly create wireframes and design prototypes. 💻 Deploy the Techie for Development The Techie brings the idea to life by coding the essential features. Prioritize speed and functionality, using existing frameworks to accelerate progress. AI Tool: Use GitHub Copilot to assist in writing code faster and automating repetitive coding tasks. 🗂️ Plan and Prioritize Spend the first hour planning as a team. The Architect should lead in setting priorities, ensuring everyone knows their tasks and deadlines. AI Tool: Use Trello with Butler AI to automate task assignments and set up reminders to keep the team on track. 🔧 Utilize Available Resources Leverage tools, APIs, and mentorship provided at the hackathon. The Architect should guide how these resources can best support the team's goals. AI Tool: Use ChatGPT to quickly search and understand documentation for APIs and tools you plan to use. ⚙️ Focus on Functionality Emphasize building a working MVP over perfecting details. The Architect ensures the product meets the objectives while the Techie and Creative execute. AI Tool: Use Testim for automated testing to ensure functionality without spending too much time on manual tests. 🔄 Test, Iterate, and Pitch Gather feedback, make quick improvements, and prepare a compelling pitch that showcases your MVP’s potential. AI Tool: Use Descript for quickly editing and refining your pitch video or presentation, making it polished and professional. 🎟️ REGISTER TODAY 🎟️ A 24-hour hackathon with the ACT Model is a powerful way to bring ideas to life. Ready to build something incredible? Sign up for our upcoming hackathon and let your team shine!

Malachi Horton and I were honored to pitch our tech startup, Passion Role, 🤳 in front of a panel of judges, including Felecia Hatcher of Black Ambition! This opportunity came after meeting her at Black Tech Week! We received positive feedback for our very first pitch 😱 and to know that we were in consideration for one of the final prizes at the end was truly inspiring! We want to express our gratitude to the Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs and Jay Bailey for bringing this opportunity to stakeholders. We also want to extend a special thank you to everyone for their support. We took that energy ⚡ to the stage, and it paid off! The exposure and connections we gained from this experience have pushed us in the right direction, the RICE way! 🚀 #datHRguy #tech #nationalblackbusinessmonth #recruiting #humanresources #RICEway

An experience tells a story every time. Appreciative for the opportunity to attend No Pressure Pitch at #Rice sponsored by Black Ambition and #ActHouse (Dominick J. Ard'is, I & Jordan McNear ) Over 100 people showed up and packed out #russellinnovationcenter in Atlanta,Georgia. Although I didn’t win the grand prize, it was worth the experience to share NeuBite with a new audience. Take a peek at a few of the businesses that pitched (I took notes on all 39 of them). Tremendous innovation bubbling. #TheRiceWay #RiceCommunity #BuildBlackBusiness #BlackAmbition #InvestFest #Founder
