Michelle Rogers, Past President of the ATD St. Louis and Learning & Development Manager at Scottrade

Previously a Partner and Director of Training at Dale Carnegie, Michelle holds an MBA from Webster University. Following the economic downturn in 2009, many of our valued ATD St. Louis chapter members were forced to seek employment in other fields resulting in decreased revenue and concern for the sustainability of the chapter. Beginning in 2011, under Michelle’s brave and tireless direction as Chapter President, the contract with our outside management firm was cancelled and all chapter administrative functions became the responsibly of the chapter board of directors. By the end of 2011 we had reached financial stability and 2012 brought new life, increased membership, and a bright new future for the chapter.

Bob Kalal, President, Kalal Training Associates, LLC and St. Louis Chapter Member Emeritus

Bob holds a Masters in Adult Education & Pastoral Ministry from Seattle University. As President at Kalal Training Associates, Bob provides training in person and through Kalalcast: Helpful Workplace Training Podcasts, to groups of all sizes on the human aspects of work. Bob has been both an ATD member and an active ATD St. Louis Chapter member for many years.
