Working as a soda jerk at Watkinsville Drugs taught Lawanna Saxon a simple but important lesson, she says. "It’s where I first learned about client service and the importance of ‘just be nice,’" says Saxon, who chairs GBA’s Marketing Committee and is in charge of marketing at Signature Bank of Georgia in Sandy Springs. She’s keen on involvement in her association, noting that attending GBA programs provides key insights and peer support. "We’re not just an island. Many of us share the same day-to-day tasks and it’s such a positive environment to get to hang with fun, creative people," she says.
