AALAM

This month, AALAM recognizes the continued leadership and visibility of our President and CEO, Angela Slack Adams, whose work continues to extend AALAM’s presence and influence both regionally and nationally.

Angela was recently recognized by Milwaukee Magazine as a Woman of the Week, honoring her designation as a Woman of Distinction for leading boldly. This recognition reflects the values at the heart of AALAM—leadership rooted in purpose, service, and long‑term impact.

Angela is also a featured speaker during She Stands Tall® Women’s Entrepreneurship Week panel, Rising Together: Inspiring the Next Wave of Women Entrepreneurs, on Tuesday, May 12, where she will share insights on leadership, entrepreneurship, and supporting the next generation of high‑performing talent.

These moments align with a meaningful period for AALAM, as this month’s Alumni Spotlight highlights the continued success and leadership of our alumni—reinforcing that AALAM’s impact is strengthened through strong leadership at every level.

In addition to her role at AALAM, Angela serves on the Board of Regents for the Universities of Wisconsin and is the Founder and CEO of Sage, where she continues to champion leadership excellence and high performance across organizations and communities.
