The Alabama State Bar Leadership Forum took a year off in 2019 to focus on our alumni and the future of the program.  The Leadership Forum Alumni Section hosted three summits for its alumni to reflect, reconnect and re-energize. Each summit included a Thursday night social for alumni to reconnect with classmates and meet alumni from other classes. The following morning, the summits featured “Ed Talks” named in honor of Ed Patterson, who successfully lead the Leadership Forum during its first fourteen years. Each Ed Talk was a unique and diverse reflection of the Leadership Forum alumni as a whole with topics ranging from funny and lighthearted to thought provoking and challenging. No matter the topic, all of the Ed Talks were engaging, insightful and provided the Leadership Forum alumni in attendance with an impactful experience that will not soon be forgotten.
