Maybach Family Foundation At Cannes Film Festival, To Announce Global Mentoring Program; Sponsor Lunch Honoring Quincy Jones, & Host Party with Va

CANNES, FRANCE (PRWEB) May 11, 2007 -- The Maybach Family Foundation (www.maybach.org) has teamed with Quincy Jones to promote mentoring leadership worldwide at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

The Maybach Family Foundation will introduce to Cannes its Excellence in Mentoring Leadership program, which provides exceptionally talented young adults from disadvantaged circumstances the opportunity to mentor with distinguished global leaders, in order to make a difference in their lives and in the world.

Quincy Jones commented, "Having spent much of my life teaching and coaching others, and watching them blossom into remarkable contributors to society, I am thrilled to join the Maybach Family Foundation in Cannes to support them in taking the mentoring leadership concept to a global level."

Quincy Jones, who in January was named as the first-ever "Mentor of the Year" by Harvard School of Public Health, will be honored at a private luncheon hosted by the Maybach Family Foundation.

The music legend has mentored a wide range of people, from Oprah Winfrey and Will Smith, to former gang members in South Central Los Angeles. Most recently, Jones and the Harvard School of Public Health have developed Project Q, which aims to improve the health and well-being of children around the world.

The luncheon will be held on Wednesday, May 23 at 2:00 p.m., at the villa of Enrico Navarra.

Also at Cannes, on Saturday, May 19, the Foundation will sponsor a private poolside party with Variety and AMC, at 6:00 p.m. at the Majestic Hotel.

Ulrich "Uli" Schmid-Maybach, founder of the Maybach Family Foundation, was inspired to conceptualize his mentoring mandate by his great-grandfather. Dr. Wilhelm Maybach grew up at an orphanage where he met Gottlieb Daimler, who mentored him to become the constructor of the first Mercedes automobile, later being hailed as "the king of engineers." Wilhelm's son, Dr. Karl Maybach then started Maybach Motorenbau Company, which produced the most luxurious cars in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s. The Foundation builds on a legacy of engineering, invention and design that established the roots of the automotive industry.

Klaus Nesser, CEO of Maybach Brand, DaimlerChrysler remarked, "We are proud to support the Maybach Family Foundation, as the primary partner in their efforts to provide creative solutions to the world's problems through a global mentoring program of aspiring young leaders. The Foundation's approach to social responsibility coincides with our commitment to support excellence and is therefore firmly grounded in the very core of our brand."

Schmid-Maybach remarked, "The Maybach Family Foundation is extremely honored to work with such venerable forces as Quincy Jones, Variety and AMC. We are looking forward to the Cannes Film Festival as a place to identify several outstanding potential mentors for our protégés in various fields."

Choosing Windows Web Hosting
If you use a wireless headset for your job, you know how important it is to not only be able to hear your customers but it?s important for them to hear you as well. You need a wireless headset microphone that you can trust. If your customers can?t hear you clearly, you run into the problem of being misunderstood or, worse, of losing contact with the customer altogether. If you?re in customer service, this is a bad thing but if you?re in sales, this is a worse thing. If you?re in sales and you don?t have a wireless headset microphone you can trust, you may end up losing the sale, or many sales. A salesperson without sales is what others like to call unemployed. So, make sure that your wireless headset microphone works and works well. If it d...
