“Engaging, personalized and 100% on are three ways I would describe this training. The preparation that’s put into these engagements is evident and leads to the success of the team and the training. One notices that the facilitator spent hours understanding the audience, what motivates them, and who they are as people. It was clear the time spent upfront creates a personalized touch to each training venue."

"The team's feedback was outstanding, but most importantly they put these new skills to use immediately and, I have no doubt, led to sales that otherwise may have gone the other way. We continue to work with the Baker Communications Team and I am happy to give them a strong recommendation for any organization looking to improve the ability of their sales team to understand client drivers and win more deals. Rep productivity increased by 25% in terms of quarterly sales bookings & pipeline increased by 30%. That translates to $1.5M in annualized revenue and $6M in pipeline."

It's been my good fortune to have created and lead businesses that have operated in 13 countries on 3 continents. I am currently the Chairman and Co-Founder of CloudChomp and Chairman and CEO of Baker Communications. CloudChomp is a software company that helps organizations programmatically assess cloud migration opportunities, and Baker Communications is a consulting firm that helps enterprises create, implement and sustain sales effectiveness projects for companies including Amazon Web Services, T-Mobile, SAP, and many others. Prior to my current roles, I founded and created successful exit events for two software companies. (1) Asset Optimization Group: an IT capacity planning software provider acquired by VMware. (2) CertiSource: a cloud based transaction management provider serving customers including EDS, HP and Arthur Andersen, ultimately acquired by VerticalNet. Prior to founding my first company, I was Vice President of Asia Pacific Marketing for Marcam, a process ERP Software Company. Throughout my career I have been interviewed on over 100 shows on CNN, CBS and ABC on the topics of Corporate Productivity, Sales and CRM.

I live my life and serve my customers based off of a couple of significant beliefs which are well described by the following quotes: - "Be the change you want to see in the world." Gandhi - "The foundation stones for a balanced success are honesty, character, integrity, faith, love, and loyalty." Zig Ziglar - "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit." Will Durant I believe in serving customers with the same respect as ones own family. Bringing to the workplace high morals and integrity, loyalty and truthfulness. If we can help our customers to better serve their customers and successfully and constantly deliver results then we have been successful in our partnership. And we can only do that by constantly adding value. As Tiffany Bova says, customer experience is the last differentiator and thus why I have chosen to put my focus here, from a place of honesty, integrity, faith, love, and loyalty. I believe that by building trust through constant actions that show customers that we are more concerned with helping them achieve THEIR outcomes than closing the next sale then the rest takes care of itself. #CARPEDIEM #BETHECHANGE #GROWTHMINDSET

"I was just wondering if you could help me find my way" enquired Alice
"Well that depends on where you want to get to" purred the Cheshire Cat
"Oh, it really doesn't matter" Alice replied
"Then it really, really doesn't matter which way you go" grinned the cat.
…and therein lays the challenge!
It is estimated that fewer than 30% of people set themselves goals, and of this only a small percentage have them clearly defined and written down. The research varies on the actual number but what doesn't change is the fact that successful people set themselves ambitious goals. Oh yes, and then they take decisive action.
So why doesn't everyone do this? Well, what about your goals, how clearly defined are they? Do you even have goals? And even if you have, are you acting on them everyday?
Some people don't understand the value of goal setting. Some don't know how. Some people may fear failure or rejection. Some even fear success; weird right! Some people want to go with the flow and be like Alice. And some even claim they don't have the time. [NOTE: LinkedIn has removed my response to this final point due to too many expletives]
…and so this is the opportunity to change!
I am passionate about helping individuals and teams succeed. My aim is to help people be the best that they can be (I've unashamedly pinched this from the motto of the primary school that my son and daughters attend).
I believe coaching is all about a professional partnership that facilitates the enhancement of work performance, life experience, self-directed learning, and personal growth. It's a relationship that supports the achievement of extraordinary results based on clearly defined goals, and is founded on mutual trust and respect.
It is said that if you can earn a living doing what you love, you need never work a day in your life again. What I do certainly doesn't feel like work, but it does produce amazing results.

I believe in doing good and good will come to you !!

With a career spanning almost 30-years I am proud to say my entire professional life has been lived in sales where I have enjoyed success as a result of my own efforts, as a member of high performing teams and by building and leading high performing teams.
I enjoy nothing more than working with sales leaders, salespeople and sales teams to unleash their full potential. By tailoring our services and programs to address specific needs we enable sales professionals and the organisations they work for to achieve and sustain the kind of positive behaviour changes that produce results.
Anyone can learn how to sell. That is if you think selling is simply about following the steps of a choreographed sales process or mastering the latest selling techniques. But of course it isn't, at least not any more. We're now living in a VUCA world. That is we're all faced with more Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity than ever before.
Added to this environment is the fact that there are numerous other companies selling products and services that are just as good as yours, and the people selling them are likely to be just as knowledgeable as you are. What may have worked before simply doesn't work any longer.
With all this going on I believe that salespeople can be the answer to all this fog and complexity, and become a force for positive change in the world whilst at the same time accelerating success and fulfillment for all stakeholders. However, we need to be much more than in the past.
I am a passionate believer in the principles and values that connect people and allow us to achieve more together. Sales at its core is about human connection and my purpose is to break down the barriers between buyers and sellers so that together we can change the world.
Salespeople can be a powerful force for good in the world - now that's a purpose I can believe in. If you can too let's talk. Maybe we can make it happen together.
