“The board of directors is excited to have Alyssa join our team of superstars. We have an exciting future ahead, as an organization, as we focus on our CEO members. Alyssa will help us execute our 10-year strategic plan, wherein we have three pillars: growth and inclusion, world-class programming and the member experience,” said Hugh Campbell, chairman of the board and president at AC4S Technologies, in a statement.

“I am honored to have the opportunity to lead the CEO Council of Tampa Bay and look forward to being a part of the effort to bring the CEO Council to the next level,” Rhoads said.
