- Kimberly Hay, presenter of Leading with Your Strengths seminar and COO of Life-Long Leadership,Inc.
“I have attended several Seminars at the Cobb Chamber. I enjoy them because they are very informative, the topics are always related to current business trends or issues in the workplace and they are very affordable. The Seminars usually last only two to four hours making it easy to fit into my schedule."
