GAIL SWIFT, a speaker/advocate for children from Las Vegas, will join us to discuss her work that is "... committed to guiding students to achieve the confidence to take action, certainty in their natural abilities, and clarity in their contribution.", through her "Plans to Prosper Coaching" program that is designed to help parents to understand their children.
FROM HER WEBSITE:
"As a parent, I want to help my children succeed. I recognized when they were young that they work in a different way than I do; I wanted a quantifiable way to see these differences.
I thrive on having a lot of things going on at once and work best under pressure. I brainstorm with my mouth then see if it’s a viable option. Noah, my oldest, needs to finish what he starts. He likes to have a plan before he begins, but if he’s put in a room with kids that need the details and kids that want the big picture, he can find the middle ground and bridge the gap. Tyler, my youngest, doesn’t need to finish what he starts (which can make chore time difficult), but excels at physical tasks. He’s a natural with body language and can usually tell when someone is having a bad day."
