WHO WE ARE

Everyone deserves a chance to thrive both personally and professionally.

But in order to do that, people need clarity.

We provide clarity for people on who they are at their core so they can truly be their best self at home and at work. When individuals are equipped with the tools they need to operate at their best, teams are transformed.

When people thrive, organizations thrive.

We are committed to helping organizations capitalize on the diverse value of their employees through our comprehensive team training and personal development model.

Study after study has shown that diversity in the workplace powers innovation and financial performance. And talent diversity is no different.

Every person is unique - from the way they think to how they interact with others to what motivates them. And as an organization, that’s your greatest strength.

By providing a framework and methodology that is Memorable, Understandable, Applicable, and Actionable, we have helped thousands of individuals, teams, and organizations become stronger by harnessing the collective talents of their people.

CANDACE FITZPATRICK

FOUNDER & CEO

Candace’s dream of helping people discover what makes them great came to life with the founding of CoreClarity. As a lifelong learner, she fell in love with the book Now, Discover Your Strengths immediately after completing her MBA and within months had developed a dynamic framework for understanding the CliftonStrengths Assessment results. She quickly began sharing her methodology with business associates, friends, and even strangers! That started the journey of building a network of CoreClarity facilitators around the world. Although Candace loves spending time alone thinking deeply about complex challenges, a perfect day is one where she can connect with new people and help them uncover their own brilliance.

GARY RIFKIN

CHIEF LEARNING OFFICER

Gary helps brilliant people shine. He has a well-honed ability to bring out the best in people by helping them know, grow, and show their talents in every way. Gary instinctively and intentionally encourages people to build those talents into strengths through his expert communication skills. His key responsibility is to train and develop new facilitators to become proficient in the CoreClarity methodology. He also works with existing facilitators, providing targeted guidance on both their presentation skills and their business development. Gary's greatest joy is mobilizing other people to impactful action!

MANDY SNELL

ENGAGEMENT CHAMPION

Mandy sparks energy and elevates organizational alignment. With a strong intuition, she is most at home when honoring an individual's perspective and offering a positive lens or encouraging words as they sort through their thoughts. With a passion for connecting others with their best self, she finds joy in helping individuals discover what makes them tick. You can find Mandy connecting with existing and prospective clients, coaching individuals, developing educational opportunities that strengthen our facilitator community, and enhancing resources that inspire us toward our greatest potential as an organization.

CARY REAMS

Steward of the portal

Cary only looks like he's staring off into space. 

That's actually scheduled thinking time. He's intently focused on selecting the most advantageous route for CoreClarity and its Certified Facilitators. The parking lot of ideas under active exploration may be useful for us today, tomorrow, or never. CoreClarity has relied on his well-considered decision-making process to create and grow the Portal, the database, and the production of our customized participant materials since 2006.

RAY FITZPATRICK

TREASURER

Customer service is what motivates Ray. Not only is he responsible for the company’s financial affairs, but he also loves managing preparation of all participant workshop resources. Whether working with our staff or our facilitators, Ray’s resourceful and routine-driven nature allows him to anticipate potential risks and best serve people’s needs. Retired from a background in manufacturing, he was the perfect person to support Candace as she brought the dream of CoreClarity to life.

ALISON BUCHANAN

Project Specialist

Alison loves to encourage and equip people to thrive in their sweet spot...that place where talents, passion, and purpose all come together. For her, there is nothing more fulfilling than seeing people and teams understand and embrace their own unique identity, purpose, and value - creating a truly collaborative team culture. Besides leading her own clients in personal and team development, Alison supports CoreClarity's new facilitators and helps the organization grow by sharing her expertise on special projects.
