Our November luncheon features Kristina McCollam, Director of Business and Client Development at Assurant. Her speech is titled Personal Branding – Offline.![]() Kristina McCollam is a boomerang native of Rapid City who spent entirely way too much time in higher education (first as student, then as professor). Upon returning to Rapid she discovered that there were few to no jobs requiring her skill set, and made the decision to try something completely new. She was hired by Assurant as a bilingual phone rep in one of the customer service teams and after four and a half years with the company is currently the Director of Business and Client Development for the Global Preneed Business. Kristina was a member of the Leadership Rapid City Class of ’07, the class that brought you Summer Nights. She served on the Summer Nights Board of Directors (coordinating corporate volunteer beer teams and hauling a lot of trash) until 2014, and remains active with the LRC program as a class facilitator. Her most recent accomplishment is receiving her Known Traveler number for TSA Pre-check and is very excited to leave her shoes on and her liquids and laptop in her bag. Please join us on November 16th at 11:30 AM at the The Rushmore Hotel (formerly called Adoba). To reserve your seat, please RSVP online. Tickets are just $20, and you can pay online by following the link above. While you can pay at the door, we will have limited walk-in seats available on the day of the event. |
