Business Daily meets: La June Montgomery Tabron

La June Mongomery Tabron tells us about being the first African American CEO of the Kellogg Foundation, which is one of the biggest philanthropic organisations in the world.

Vivienne Nunis sits down with La June Montgomery Tabron, President and CEO of one of the world's biggest charities, the Kellogg Foundation. Last year the foundation distributed nearly half a billion dollars in grants.

La June is the first woman and the first African American to lead the foundation in it's 90 year history. In this episode she tells about growing up in a large family in Detroit and how she has transformed the Kellogg Foundation from a very male, very white organisation to one where half the staff are now people of colour.
