"It Takes 4 To Tango”
Candy Whirley, MS, CSP.
In this session, Candy has two meanings when it comes to her “4”. The first meaning … she will take you through her 4 C’s of Leadership which are the importance of Confidence, Communication, Creativity and Change in the workplace.
The second meaning … you will go on a brilliant exploration of personality styles that will make you think, laugh, even dance … and recognize your true self and others. Candy gets participants up and out of their seats and networking with other … ANIMALS (Chameleon, Lion, Lamb or Owl) just like them! This is an open and honest way for all the personalities to hear from one another about how to communicate better with other Animals, how to motivate them and which ANIMAL drives them the craziest and why … WITHOUT A TEST!
