Mankato, Minn. – Local business executive Sarah Richards, the president, CEO and board chair for Jones Metal Inc., Advanced Coil Technology and Jones Equity Holdings, will discuss her career experiences on Wednesday, May 17 in a 4-5:15 p.m. interview and audience Q&A at Pioneer Bank (1450 Adams Street) in Mankato.

The event, presented as the latest event in the South Central Small Business Development Center’s “Behind the Success” speaker series, is intended for entrepreneurs, both new and experienced. The event is free and open to the public, but registration is required, and seating is limited.

According to a short provided biography, Richards has been involved in many Mankato-area philanthropic organizations and volunteer activities since returning to the community in 2008. A common thread that links her local volunteer work to her professional career is the idea of “leadership from legacy.” More on Richards is available here.
