Leadership

As someone who has trained in various methods of leadership such as Ken Blanchard’s Situational Leadership, the Center for Creative Leadership, the Human Performance Institute, and the Harvard Business Review Leadership for New Managers, I understand the importance of not managing people, but leading them to be the best version of themselves. Leadership does not require a title, as it is a mentality that allows you to influence people with or without authority. Let me show you the tools and techniques that I have learned over my time as a corporate leader, business coach, startup mentor, and entrepreneur.

Entrepreneurship, Innovation & Startups

I have mentored hundreds of startups both domestic and international, in helping them from the ideation stage, to business development, to fund raising. I help startups simplify their value proposition to prospective B2B clients in a way that shortens the sales cycle while building brand equity. I am actively involved with several innovation programs like TechStars, MassChallenge, the Engage Venture Fund, and TogetherHealth.

Networking

Every job that I have ever had, including my first job out of college, I did not have to search and apply. Every single new position I acquired through networking. Networking is one of the most powerful skills that everyone should continually learn, and I will teach you the tactical fundamentals that have helped me navigate climbing the corporate ladder to building a 7 figure business without spending a single dollar on marketing or advertising. Whether you are an introvert, extrovert, scientist, engineer or entrepreneur, I will help you learn to be a networking machine!

Sales Excellence

I have been selling since I was 15 years old, and I have learned from the best. As an award winning sales professional, I mastered the fundamentals from my personal experience in selling consumer items like clothing, to complex products like pharmaceuticals and software. Not only have I led sales teams to achieve greatness, but I have also developed sales training programs for large companies and served as sales coaches to corporations, startup accelerators and venture capital funds. I will teach you the secrets that traditional sales training programs won’t and ensure that you are effective in front of any customer.
