All For Business is back for our second season! We're excited to kick it off with another "Around The Table" mini-series with Leadership Lynchburg in honor of Black History Month. Leadership Lynchburg believes that creating opportunities for healthy conversation builds awareness, trust and ultimately relationship. Relationships can create productive action and relationships enable you to "go there" on difficult topics trusting that the benefit is greater awareness and mutual understanding. In short, relationship create community. We aim to inspire leaders and educate allies and potential allies so they can create tangible actions within their respective spheres of influence. So, it's February, Black History Month and we thought it would be great to feature some of our local friends who can speak to their work for the black community. We're uniting these podcasts under the theme of "Tell me what I need to know . . ." Our fourth guest is John H. Hughes, IV.

A native of Lynchburg, Mr. Hughes has earned an A.A.S. in General Studies from CVCC, as well as a B.S. in Social Science, a B.S. in Business Administration, and an M.B.A., all from Lynchburg College. Mr. Hughes received the Lynchburg College Distinguished Alumni Award in 2013 and is currently pursuing the Doctor of Education Degree in Leadership Studies at Lynchburg College with a focus on local government leadership and the phenomenon of gentrification.
