From boardroom to ballroom |
|
“Dance and business are both performances. A dance must be
synchronized with music and business must be synchronized with a
vision,” declares Anna Marie Periquet.
She glides in her dance studio like the dance
expert that she is. There’s a perfect sense of synchronization
between her movements and her motivation to succeed. Every swing she
makes always complements the music that plays in her head. She’s
always on the beat, on the dot and on track. Her various business
and socio-civic ventures are testaments to her innate gift for
grace, poise, timing and balance. Being the go-getter that she is,
Periquet exudes an air of elegance and excellence both in the in the
ballroom and at the boardroom.
