In a world filled with lots of interesting characters, what better way to relay a story about how we all have unique hardwiring that we use to create, cultivate, and deepen long-lasting relationships than a business fable with a giraffe, robot, entertaining sea lion, workhorse, and old dog? Of note, each character (yes, even the robot) has whiskers. Animals use their whiskers for sensory functions, spatial awareness, hunting and foraging, communication, balance, and orientation. Robots use their whiskers for environmental sensing, measurement and precision, exploration, research, and enhanced autonomy. In humans, our whiskers are not as obvious, but they are as beneficial. Our whiskers are our experiences, education, culture, diversity, and so much more. They are special to each individual, regardless of type or use. The fable's thought-provoking ending about which character wins the deal promises to surprise you! This book is the first in the Winning with Whiskers(TM) book series. Stay tuned as our characters - Rockie, Harlie, Stevie, and Dannie - experience real-world business scenarios and are called upon to develop and advance their new business relationships with their client, GiGi, to win work for their firms by leveraging their unique whiskers. How and why Dawn F. Landry created Winning with Whiskers : Evergreen in its concept - it is applicable no matter the people, industry, market conditions, etc.It adds some fun and lighthearted elements that we can reflect upon to understand how we relate and connect to others.It is not to make the subject simple or cartoonish; nor is the intent to be representative of all individuals.It is about helping us see and value our uniqueness in the way that we cultivate and advance our business relationships.
