Joel Burstein is a Co-Founder and CEO at BEAM Collaborative at BEAM Collaborative. He possess expertise in public speaking, leadership development coaching, sales, sales management, sales process and 5 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Having spent countless hours in various sales trainings over my career, I had become skeptical of the usefulness of sales training in general. It seemed to me that all sales techniques all boiled down to basic principles: Listening well, identifying people's needs, and crafting solutions that answered those needs. However, the various sales "methods" I was exposed to seemed to simply add a layer of techniques and even tricks that I felt were gimmicky and even counterproductive. But, after meeting Joel and talking with him, I felt he was different in his approach - more "authentic" even - and so I took the leap and brought him in to our team for trainings. I'm glad I did, as it was clearly beneficial. Since then, our professional paths have crossed again and I continue to hold him in high regard as a real asset to our region's professional community. In other words: If you have the opportunity to work with Joel, do it!" and "Joel is an incredible professional and a marvelous human being who goes out his way to help people and will go that extra mile for his clients. In todays day and age its not common to find someone with Joel's charisma, ethics and customer service skills. Joel has exceeded my expectations in every way and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an knowlegable, trustworthy and understanding financial advisor."
