    CONVERSATIONS

    Alabama Power Co. Southern Division Vice President Leslie Sanders gave a presentation on “What Leaders Really Do” to a sold-out crowd at the Montgomery Chamber’s Conversations: Roundtables for Professional Women.

    The networking event provides information for professional women to use in both their business and personal lives. After Sanders’ short presentation, lively roundtable discussions followed.

    INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY FORUM

    The Montgomery Chamber held an information technology forum on “Adapting to a Digital World” at the Montgomery Chamber Business Resource Center.

    The featured speaker was Col. Richard J. Bailey Jr., who is dean of the School of Advanced Air and Space Studies at Air University at Maxwell Air Force Base. He spoke about the importance of businesses and individuals being able to adapt to advancing technology from both a military and business perspective.

    The IT forums are held quarterly.
