Colleen’s vibrant personality lights up a room. Having done her homework on our organization prior to meeting with the group, she was able to apply her principles to relevant sales scenarios we’re facing. The entire sales group is better equipped with a handful of valuable learnings to apply to our account base. What’s more, we all still continue to find ourselves rehashing and applying her insights… six months later!  

Marketing Manager
