Dublin Methodist Hospital president Cheryl Herbert will kick off the Dublin Entrepreneurial Center's speaking series next month.

The quarterly series is a partnership between Dublin and TechColumbus and features "innovative leaders throughout central Ohio," a news release said.

On Sept. 20, Herbert will talk about her mantra, "Run until apprehended," which, she said, guided her through the construction of the Dublin Methodist Hospital and the hiring of employees during the recession.

The event will be held at the Dublin Entrepreneurial Center, 7003 Post Road. Registration will run from 7 to 7:30 a.m., with a welcome to follow. Herbert will speak from 7:45 to 9 a.m. Networking is slated to follow until 9:30 a.m.

The free event is open to the public, but registration is required by Sept. 13 and may be done online at dublin.oh.us.
