Gardian of the Month: Peggy Hoffman

Our Gardian of the Month is Peggy Hoffman, President & Chapter Exec, Mariner Management.

Learn: What's your favorite part about learning something new? 

The adventure of learning. Its like being on a new hiking trail … seeing new things and trying new steps.

Network: What's your number one networking trick?

My first response was smile with my eyes because eye contact is a door opener. When I asked someone as I was filling this out, she said it’s your energy, I love your energy. So, the real answer is I use happy energy.

Transfer: What resources/tools do you find most helpful in helping you retain knowledge? 

I have to “do it” … the kinesthetic learner in me has to move to retain knowledge. In fact, you’ll see me get up and pace or stand in trainings J

Please share with us a resource you can’t live without. 

There are two and both really are about reminders and connections. My fitbit reminds me to move and connects me with breathing (love the 2 min relax mode). OneNote reminds me of ideas I’ve had or curated and connects me with resources.

Just for Fun: What's your spirit animal, and why? 

Butterfly. It’s about transformation, embracing change. Equally, it is a reminder to get up and move! Dance brings the sweetness of life. And full of color, they bring joy. And, it’s a special connection to my Mom.
