com; Coordinator, Multicultural Connection Subject: Convention Approval Scott, I propose that we hold a new convention: Multicultural Connection. With this convention we can expand who we collaborate with and allowing this to happen will result in many opportunities for all companies including ours. The graph below indicates my research. Group 1 specifies the many businesses that have collaborated with more diverse companies and as a result, more customers. Group 2 specifies the businesses that do not necessarily collaborate with multicultural businesses.

The Centerville Media Associates Multicultural Convention will be an opportunity for the public to see how multicultural businesses present a wide variety of employment and knowledge We will need the participation of employees for this to be a success. Here is a list of committees and positions that are needed:

Committees we need at least 3 or 4 for each. Dates: start job and the deadlines. Dates that are 1 month-Deadline (they may start whenever.) The information assistants are for the day of the convention.

Employees will be able to get the Convention to run more smoothly and help expand their skills. Letters to local businesses and other businesses will be requesting their participation to put on the event, be a host, sponsor the convention/our business or table their own business. I have the top locations and ideas of what is needed; I will give you an estimate on cost. The convention will give our company a variety of opportunities to expand locally and globally. We can learn about other businesses and diversify the associates we collaborate with. This will help our company immensely; we should not pass this up. This could turn into an annual event. I would be happy to provide any additional information. Crystal Zarate Coordinator, Multicultural Connection
