On Feb. 25, MMI welcomed Emefa Butler as a distinguished guest speaker. A Uniontown native, she journeyed through a successful career in the financial industry and returned home in 2019 to make a difference. Ms. Butler currently serves as the IT Manager at Protective Life;  Founder/Executive Director of C.H.O.I.C.E (Choosing to Help Others In our Community Excel); Founder/Executive Director of BAM Coaching & Consulting LLC; a member of the State of Alabama's Hospital Discharge Data Advisory Council; and a member of the Perry Co. Board of Education. 
 
Some takeaways from her presentation:
- Look forward; don't look back. 
- Profession does not take perfection. 
- History is written by participants, not spectators. 
- You don't have to have it all together to incite change. 
- You don't have to be qualified in others' eyes to lead.
