Breakout Session #1
Constance Lynn Hummel offers personal and professional development opportunities for leaders on all paths. Her clients are entrepreneurs, executives, creatives, community leaders and inspired action-takers (or those that want to be). She works with people who are here to leave their mark and make a positive difference in the world. If this sounds like you, one thing is for sure – you have a vision and you know how to get things done. However, even those blazing a new trail can get stuck, spin their wheels, and need somewhere to turn for support and strategy. You often can’t see the picture when you’re standing in the frame.
