Summary: Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of joining the Southcoast Emerging Leaders Committee to offer a small (tiny!) part in pushing this program forward. Over the years, I had heard about the initiative but hadn't fully felt the gravity of it all -- until now. What does this program do? What do they stand for? Could I actually make an impact? Friend of the show Shelley Cardoos connected me with today's guest, Beth Perdue, and after a 30-minute coffee meeting at the Pink Bean in Fall River, I was convinced. If you're a business on the south coast, you don't want to miss your opportunity to get involved and nominate an emerging leader you know. Grab your tickets, $30 for the October 3rd reception at UMass Dartmouth Woodland Commons 5:30-7:30PM
