A day full of purpose, orgullo, and powerful comunidad.

Last week, The Alumni Society gathered in our hometown of Chicago to celebrate a decade of Latino leadership, vision, and unity at the 2025 Leadership Summit. From thought-provoking conversations to unforgettable moments of connection and celebration, this year’s summit brought together our incredibly influential network of leaders shaping the future across every industry and region.

Thank you to our incredible members, allies, partners, and speakers who made this experience not only possible but deeply meaningful. Here’s to ten years of impact, and to the many more we’ll build juntos. Here’s to The Latino Decade.

Four generations. One workplace. Endless potential—if we get it right.

From Gen Z to boomers, today’s workforce spans more lived experience, cultural perspectives, and communication styles than ever before. So how do we lead across difference—not just manage it?

At our 10th Anniversary Leadership Summit, this breakout dives into what it really takes to thrive across generations in a divided world. Spoiler: it starts with inclusive leadership, trust, and the courage to innovate.

🎙️ Featuring:
🔹 Heather Tinsley-Fix, AARP
🔹 Dania Matos, DePaul University
🔹 Robert Cabanelas, RCA Global Advisors
🎤 Moderated by Anthony Rivera, JPMorganChase

📍Chicago | 🗓️ June 27 |

Let’s bridge the gap—and build workplaces where all generations lead, contribute, and rise.

"Some of my fondest childhood memories are of my family gathered around the TV, cheering on Michael Jordan and the legendary ’90s Bulls.

We were die-hard fans. I even celebrated a birthday at the United Center — not for a game, but just to watch the ’98 championship on the jumbotron. The energy of that era, the city’s electric pride, shaped something deep in me.

Years later, stepping onto that court as a Chicago Bulls dancer was a full-circle moment. The same floor where I once watched my heroes became the place where I pushed my limits, honed my craft, and blended my love of dance and basketball. It wasn’t just a performance — it was a tribute to a city that raised me.”

For Dasha Arias, the United Center isn’t just a landmark.

“It’s where I grew. It’s steeped in personal history, genuine joy, and a true sense of belonging.

It’s home.”

—Dasha Arias, Voices of The Alumni Society
