In the meantime, though, he\u2019ll continue reaching hundreds of thousands of readers with his weekly blog, \u2018Chambers on the Profession,\u2019 as well as the viewers of the video series he started during the pandemic, the readers of his books, and his many followers on social media.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"ms-rteElement-P\">Amid this year\u2019s coronavirus pandemic and resulting lockdowns, Chambers has led The IIA team into innovative ways of interacting with and serving members around the globe, including the addition or expansion of virtual conferences, training, and certification exams.
