What can You take away from a Virtual Chamber?
Several years back, the Covington Chamber under the leadership of Jennifer Liggett, decided to take an unusual path and close their physical office doors and open a virtual Chamber. Their decision was made for a number of reasons, but primarily to provide their members with a "cost effective" and high-level of support and services.
Here is your chance to hear from and interact with Covington Chamber Executive Jennifer Liggett as to the pros and cons of operating a virtual Chamber through a WCCE Webcast. Even if operating a Virtual Chamber is far off your radar, you’ll find examples where utilizing various aspects of what makes a virtual office effective, can also work for a "brick and mortar" office.
Join your WCCE colleagues April 23rd, 9:30AM for what will be an interesting and entertaining webcast.
