I have over twenty-five years experience in sales and sales management. I possess a customer-centric perspective, drive and enthusiasm, excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and a well-developed aptitude for teamwork. Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated genuine leadership and management skills, the ability to work in high pressure environments, and the ability to multi-task. I grasp new concepts quickly, and I can generate fresh and innovative ideas. I also possess a well-developed commercial awareness and an understanding for balance between entrepreneurship and sound risk assessment. I am convinced that exceeding the expectations of customers and associates is the only path to success. I take a comprehensive approach in order to maintain a clear long-term view . I believe that it is imperative to be conscientious of how a company, its operations, and its employees are viewed by its industry, its competitors, and most importantly its customers. In today's rapidly evolving business environment, achieving success requires more than selling "products and price". A successful company has to provide value to its customers. Value is truly what a consumer seeks out, and ultimately will purchase. The future of any company rests on its ability to identify its target consumer and fulfill the needs of that consumer through a value added experience. It is my goal to be an integral part of a company that provides the resources necessary to deliver value, thus creating an environment that will lead to long term success for the company and the individuals involved.Specialties: Marketing, Product Development, Sales, Sales Training, Sales Management, Consulting, Purchasing, Sourcing, Retail Operations Management, Strategic Planning.
