"Women in Business"


 Securitas sponsored a table at the Temecula Chamber of Commerce's "Women in Business" event at South Coast Winery.  Kelly invited me to attend, along with Paradise, Marie and Diana from our branch offices.  When we arrived this morning, there were about 40 different companies with outdoor booths at the Expo and Corner Bakery provided breakfast.
At 9:00am, we took our places inside to begin the series of guest speakers. 
 There were 4 different professionals speaking on storytelling as a positive tool in the sales industry, portraying your "best self" through fashion and personal image and several self-motivating topics for women in the work force.  I especially enjoyed the 1980's Olympian javelin thrower who is now President of her own company.  She spoke about "being Olympic" and always striving for more.
We had a fantastic lunch and I enjoyed the time with the Securitas ladies. It was even nicer to get out of my normal office for a while and feel like a real professional!
