On April 12th, Talladega College held a free leadership workshop for juniors and seniors, centered around discussion of Leilani M. Brown’s book From Campus to Cubicle: 25 Tips for Your First Professional Year. The event took place at Savery Library on Talladega College’s campus and was led by a powerful group of panelists, session leaders, and moderators. And Coca-Cola UNITED’s own Pam Cook was among the panelists for the workshop.

The Event

Every student who participated in this event received a free copy of the book, From Campus to Cubicle. The conversation of the text was led by moderator Valerie Lewis, a Talladega College trustee.

The panel of professionals for this event included Attorney Lewis; Leilani Brown, author; Dr. Arturo Menefee, Director of Leadership Development for the University of Alabama Center for Economic Development; and Pam Cook, Director of Multicultural Marketing and Community Affairs at Coca-Cola UNITED Bottling Company.
