Last week I had the honor of speaking at the annual Operation Smile International Student Leadership Conference, hosted this year by Emory University.
I presented on several stories and lessons learned from the time spent on my gap year volunteering on a number of medical missions in Latin-America, with the goal of empowering students to take on universal experiences that will ultimately benefit others and push them to live outside their comfort zone.
It was a surreal experience sharing the stage with my grandfather and co-founder of the organization, William P. Magee, Jr., DDS, MD, and addressing a global audience of students who sat in the same seats as I many years ago.

Mentorship, one-to-one career coaching, career treks and speaker series - just a few of the ways our Hybrid MBA students are supported and engage while completing their Foster MBA. Thank you to our amazing mentors!

On behalf of our entire team at Mentor Connect, I wanted to express our gratitude to Bobby Hulme-Lippert for speaking on our behalf at the Leadership Conference, City of Austin on June 21st, 2024.
Your presentation, “Bring Your Dance Moves: How Leaders Cultivate Belonging,” was profoundly impactful. Your explanation of how everyone has unique and important gifts to offer, and how these gifts are best shared when we feel a sense of belonging, resonated deeply with us.
We were particularly inspired by your explanation on how leaders can cultivate belonging:
1. Use Improv Comedy’s “Yes, and” as a Leadership Approach – Building from the input, perspective, and strengths of others.
2. Share Stories – Providing outlets for team members to appreciate each other’s stories, even short conversational prompts can quickly build a deeper connection.
3. Practice Gratitude – Offering team members specific, personalized expressions of gratitude and recognition for their work.
These approaches are especially beneficial for high school students as we navigate formative years, fostering a supportive and inclusive environment that enhances our personal and academic growth.
Mentor Connect is truly grateful for your partnership.
