Cross Talks, a Bible-based think tank and networking professional development organization, announces the appointment of Ed Samuel as a Cross Talks ambassador and PA group leader. Samuel, a Southern County Chamber of Commerce member and a consultant team leader at SamNova, Inc., based in Kennett Square, will run the Cross Talks group in Pennsylvania. The launch of the new group will take place on August 22 at Wegmen’s, 100 Applied Bank Blvd. in Glen Mills, from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m. Going forward, the group will meet on the last Wednesday of every month, beginning in September. To learn more or sign up for a meeting, go to www.YourCrossTalks.com. According to Soraya (Morgan) Gutman, chief executive officer and president, “At Cross Talks, entrepreneurs and senior leaders can learn wise, biblical growth strategies for life and business from people who share their values, so they can transform themselves, their teams, and their profits. Most business owners are open to learning about God but are not clear how to apply God’s wisdom in a practical way. What makes Cross Talks so remarkable is that since the groups first started seven months ago, no member has ever voluntarily left. With this expansion into Pennsylvania, given Ed Samuel’s extensive career in executive and life coaching of mid-level to senior executives in varying industries, the new Cross Talks group in Glen Mills will be in very good hands with him as the PA group leader.” Cross Talks is a think tank and networking professional development organization for entrepreneurs with a biblical perspective.
