Appalachia Meets World Episode 138 - "The Appalachian Way" with Amanda Jo Slone

Appalachia Meets World

In this episode, Will, sans Neil, sits down with Dr. Amanda Jo Slone to discuss her new passion project: The Appalachian Way: The Role of Appalachian Identity in Effective Leadership. The project combines her two loves, Leadership and Appalachia. Find out how she thinks about Appalachian Identity and if that is an asset in the development of leaders. Born and raised in the hollers of Pike County, you'll hear her passion for the region and why she chooses to live a good distance from where she works. Take a listen to find out more about her project and the potential impact it could have on not only individuals in Appalachia but in other regions as well. Also, don't forget about the #AppBiz of the week: True Pigments!
