“The Chamber is excited to partner with Reinhardt University for the third consecutive year on this impactful one-day high energy event that provides opportunities for seasoned leaders to refocus while also encouraging emerging leaders to better grasp their leadership potential,” said Pam Carnes, Chamber president and CEO. “Continuous development of Cherokee County’s array of leaders—business, government, civic, cultural, faith based, etc.—is vital as our community works diligently to remain at the top of its game.”
The four speakers include leadership coach Walter Marques, a trainer and speaker from the John Maxwell Team; business and leadership coach of IB4e Coaching, Harlan Hammack; executive director of the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association, Danielle Donehew; and VP of Sales and Marketing for Chattanooga Bakery, Inc. (maker of the MoonPie) Tory Johnston.
