As a new program this year for young professionals, the Chamber of Commerce is launching the YP Leadership Luncheon series as an opportunity for members of the under-40 crowd across Morgan County to both connect and socialize while developing their career and leadership skills. This one-hour program coincides with the traditional lunch hour where guests can enjoy lunch and glean information to apply to their careers and community.
Autumn Dilbeck is a personal banker with Renasant Bank and a 10-year veteran in the banking industry. She has a degree in business management and marketing fromSouthern Illinois University and enjoys working with clients one-on-one to help establish and reach their financial goals. Several years ago, her family was the target of identity theft, and being in the banking industry, she became versed in the field of identity theft, fraud and scams targeting the financial lives of her customers. With that experience, she developed a presentation titled "Minimize, Monitor, Manage - Protecting Your Identity," a briefing specific to young professionals and those early in their career. Knowing how to protect yourself now it critical to build a smart financial future.
We are excited to continue this series for our young professional community and we encourage you to bring guests and co-workers. YP Leadership Luncheon is presented by Nucor Steel Decatur with lunch sponsored by Dominos Pizza. Tickets for the event are $10 for Chamber members and $15 for non-members, which includes lunch.
