On January 11, 2009, members of the board of the Clay County Communities Revitalization Association (www.cccra.net) will gather to plan their activities for 2009 and beyond. For the first time, the board will use a professional human resources consultant to facilitate this process. Faye Hobbs of Hayesville, who will serve as facilitator, is the president of Transformational Learning, Inc. (www.TransformationalLearning.com). Ms. Hobbs specializes in providing assessments, coaching, and mentoring. In her work for the CCCRA board, she will help board members understand their own communication styles, identify common objectives, and formulate a practical plan for reaching these goals. She has a master’s degree in guidance and counseling from Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida.
Ms. Hobbs has experience serving both the business community and nonprofit world. This blend of experience will provide a valuable resource for the CCCRA board, which includes representatives from both arenas.
