“Joining the Board of Advisors for the Mobile Chamber has been one of the most meaningful and engaging investments we have made in our company. Considering the advocacy the Chamber champions for Small Business and Minority Businesses, it was an easy choice for us to join. The added value of the Board of Advisors being a CEO Peer Construct makes it an absolute must for me, personally. I get to interact with like-minded business executives in much more intimate meeting spaces and have an audience with the region’s leaders on a regular basis. For any business reading this in the Mobile Region, if you’re not part of this amazing group, you’re missing out on a huge value as well as a very meaningful way to support an organization that champions for your success daily.”
