About Candi
Candi C. Cylar is a passionate and authentic servant leader who honed her skills in the private sector as a process engineer with Ford Motor Company and is now transforming systems, organizations, and programs to maximize positive outcomes in the nonprofit and faith-based sector. Candi’s career spans 20+ years of progressive experience since graduating from Tuskegee University with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. She is currently the Lead Experience Director for the Candi Cylar Agency based in Atlanta, Georgia where she consults with organizations on the design, delivery, and implementation of strategic visioning and planning. Candi utilizes her Master of Divinity from Columbia Theological Seminary to draw upon knowledge and experience that facilitates supporting the unique needs of faith-based organizations. Candi’s positive and lively work style allows her to build effective and collaborative partnerships with clients to provide organizational planning and support for new initiatives, change management, and continuous quality improvement. She is thankful to be walking in her purpose to create experiences that transform organizations and lives.
Though it’s not often talked about, ministry can be scary. Stepping out on faith and trusting that God has given you everything you need to accomplish your call can be overwhelming. God will often send someone to help you through. Someone to help you navigate the new territory, and that person is Candi. As a coach, Candi does exactly that! However, she not only gives you direction and guidance, she supports you with an enthusiastic love and care that is so needed. She’s a consummate professional demonstrating great expertise in coaching. She’s knowledgeable with the ability to function in various contexts. She just doesn’t have a gift of leading, but a God-given gift of affirmation, edification and encouragement. That’s what she did for me and my church. You know Candi is pulling for you to succeed and for God to get the glory!
