Tomorrow's Business Leader - Spring 2020 - 2

Message from PBL President
Hello Members!
I hope you all have been staying safe and healthy during these times. Your safety is the
utmost priority.
These are unique times for classes and student organizations - and we are doing everything we can to meet you where you are. I encourage you to take a look at some of the
latest resources we have released to support you. Perhaps the most important resource
is our most recent eblast, which includes our latest video series, a new adviser resource
packet, and much more. Visit our twitter, @PBL_National, for the latest information! You
will also find updates regarding our national leadership conference and other relevant
updates.
During these times, I encourage you to stay engaged with virtual volunteering opportunities. Ellie Murphy published a great video on our #PBLVirtualConnection video series,
available on in our Twitter bio. Here are some interesting opportunities she discovered:
n Participate in March of Dimes Virtual Walks
n Translation without Boarders (for those members who are bilingual)
n And more!
For our college members, I also encourage you to find unique ways to grow your professional network! Recently, I've been reaching
out to business professionals on LinkedIn to hear some insights about potential careers. I find that, more often than not, business
professionals love to give back with wisdom! Check out a template message below:

For our younger members still in high school, always ask parent permission before doing anything online. In anything you decide to do, please
always remember to take care of yourself, and put your health and safety
first. As always, please reach out to your
national officers for any help or feedback.
