Faye Mandell, Ph.D.
KEYNOTE SPEAKER & WORKSHOP PRESENTER - Self Powerment Model
Friday, May 8th 

The Self-Powerment Model developed by Dr. Mandell is a practical model for finding and staying in “the zone”, allowing you to experience new possibilities and success, both personally and professionally.  Utilizing the Self-Powerment Model individuals tap into the human potential by effectively removing performance barriers. This is done by bringing learned patterns of behavior to awareness. These learned patterns often prevent effective communication and optimal performance.
