THE SHOALS-The Shoals Chamber was full of new friends and ideas as we welcomed the 30th class of Leadership Shoals. The class participated in ice breakers to get to know one another; an MBTI personality assessment administered by Director of UNA Career Center, Melissa Medlin; leadership discussions led by Leadership Shoals Director Chelsea Kauchick and Chair Greg Taylor; and heard from past participants on their experiences.
Big thank you to Rita Prince and Lisa Patterson from Patterson, Prince and Associates, P.C., Certified Public Accountants for sponsoring our event this year! Also big thank you to our graduates Richard Richey and Kristen McCaney for sharing their insights with the class.
