Karla Munkel: Breakthrough Leadership
Join the Marshall Area Chamber Women's Connect group on Thursday, December 9th to hear from local author, Karla Munkel, speak about her new book "Breakthrough Leadership"
Breakthrough Leadership with Karla Munkel is the story of how a woman dealt with the curveballs life threw her way. Instead of cowering in fear or backing away, she chose to deal with her obstacles head-on. This book is a must-read for those who seek the motivation to go from ordinary to extraordinary, from conflicted to confident, and from struggle to resilience.
Everyone who attends the event will be entered into a drawing for a free copy of Breakthrough Leadership!
Meet the Author
Karla Munkel is a wife and mom who believes a woman can have it all. She spent the first twelve years of her career in Corporate America before starting her journey in entrepreneurship while continuing to manage her corporate job and raise a family of four kids alongside her husband, Nate. Karla believes that through discipline, deliberate actions, and a firm mindset, entrepreneurship can be a gateway to not only creating the life you desire but becoming the person you have been created to become.
Thank you to our 2021-2022 Women's Connect Sponsors

Memorial Park, located on Main Street in downtown Marshall, is a special place of recognition. The completion of the Veterans’ Memorial has demonstrated that a visual reminder of the sacrifices made can have a significant impact on our communities and citizens. The decision and process to establish this everlasting tribute in Memorial Park honors the sacrifices made by our military veterans, firefighters, and public safety personnel through the years. Through several conflicts and wars, this special place makes a profound statement of cooperation and commitment for which the City of Marshall is grateful.
9/11 MEMORIAL Established May 6, 2011
VETERAN’S MEMORIAL Established October 15, 2020
Are you looking for a unique gift this holiday season? By giving a gift of memorialization, you can honor a special veteran, firefighter or public safety personnel in a lasting way with a permanent tribute.
