Iyanla Vanzant
It started with a song; then a prayer that led to laughter, tears and hugs.
Eventually author, teacher and motivational speaker Iyanla Vanzant told the female executives of Syracuse that they should avoid the mistake of following masculine models of femininity. “Stop trying to be like men, it’s killing us.”
Vanzant encouraged participants at this year’s You Can’t Fail Conference, held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, to make the condition of their soul the primary concern.
She also stressed connection, cooperation and mastering tools of effective communication to achieve success.
Vanzant is founder of Inner Visions.
You Can’t Fail was founded by leadership executive Gwen Webber-McLeod.
