The Atlanta Chapter of Professional Women in Building, one of the fastest-growing councils of the Greater Atlanta Homebuilders Association, welcomes keynote speaker and global icon Ingrid Saunders Jones at its quarterly luncheon on Wednesday, June 8 at Villa Christina.

Ms. Saunders Jones, Chair of the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW) and Former Chair of The Coca-Cola Foundation, will share her success as a leader, community developer and philanthropist during her 31-year tenure at The Coca-Cola Company and beyond. Her presentation will focus on key elements of being a female success: “How does your communication style factor into your success?”

Ms. Saunders Jones’ life celebrates commitment and contribution through diverse channels including the National Council of Negro Women, The Carter Center, Girl Scouts of the USA, the National Center for Civil and Human Rights, the Comcast/NBC Universal Diversity Council, the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, and the Clark Atlanta University Board of Trustees.
