The mission of L&S Companies, Inc. is to become
an invaluable source of news and information for minority and women business
owners; and serve as a link between corporate America, government agencies,
and educational institutions and the M/WBEs that seek to do business with
them.
The L&S Companies, Inc. is a wholly minority
owned and operated publishing and communications corporation headquartered in
Washington, D.C. The team of L&S Companies, Inc. possess the requisite
knowledge, dedication, and commitment to fulfill the corporate mission with
the utmost level of professionalism and the highest quality of service.
Paula Miller-Lester, President, CEO, and Owner
of L&S Companies, Inc. says that her corporate background showed her the need
for the services that her company provides. “There are very competent and
capable business professionals who, with just a little more information, could
compete with the so-called best of the best. We want to level the playing
field by disseminating useful information that non-minority males are privy to
on a regular basis,” said Ms. Miller-Lester.
Minorities And Women In Business
magazine is the cornerstone of L&S Companies, Inc. “MWIB is the perfect
vehicle for our company. It provides an excellent platform from which we can
be a kind of matchmaker between the magazine’s M/WBE readers and those firms
that can assist them in growing their enterprises,” said Miller-Lester. “Our
readers have what it takes to get the job done. From my perspective, it is a
win-win situation.”
Miller-Lester, who readily identifies herself
as a Christian says that she wants to be an example that one can be successful
in business by utilizing God’s principles. “After all,” she says, “The story
of Abraham [in the Bible] shows that he was a man who followed God and became
an extremely wealthy businessman with lots of employees. If he could do it why
can’t I?”
