About Charles Standen

~ Building and growing relationships to inspire exceptional top-line results. ~As a Sales Professional, I’m all about relationships because I believe people are the key to solving any business problem. If you have the right people on your team, success is inevitable. I love leading and inspiring teams to create, build and grow companies that deliver outstanding results. A stretch goal inspires me to work hard and be resourceful, but I also believe work should be fun. With the right people in an environment of mutual trust, respect and inspiration, there’s no limit to what can be accomplished. Professional Personality:Energized by people, activities and tools, my preference for considering “what might be” drives me to take an intuitive approach to processing information. My decisions are future focused and based on analysis and logic. I lean toward creative, flexible solutions and open-ended implementation strategies and plans. Core Strengths: (SF 2.0) Strategic, Ideation, Analytical, Includer, Self-AssuranceA strategist at the core, I use “stories” to influence people and inspire action. With intuitive instinct, I’m the one who helps people understand the core vision and mission as well as create the excitement needed to achieve the top-line goals. I have a talent for reducing projects to their simplest form as well as creating collaborative teams able to identify critical sequences, trends and potential problems. I love the new and different and am comfortable with the unfamiliar. Innovation is the reward of ideas articulated with words that capture the enthusiasm needed for a product or service to get wings. But I’m also all about the facts and use them to make sound and practical decisions. I’m a magnet for newcomers and good at getting everyone involved to get the job done – and have fun while doing it.
