THIS IS CHANDRA
Keynote Speaker for over 20 years to audiences who want high performance results.
Chandra believes that we can face our most seemingly intractable challenges… but we must do it together. In her stories, there’s no baby step too small on the incremental journey of high performance, and confidence comes not from platitudes but proof.
For much of her adult life her purpose has been the advancement of women and girls at all levels of society through sports. Good sport and physical activity experiences are powerful social change agents. Many clients chose Chandra for her equity-through-sport bonafides. She has seen first-hand at Girls Forward how inclusion drives better decisions and better business.
