My areas of concentration are establishing clients, original sourcing (name generation), retention & 'grooming’ in impressionable environments. I focus on conducting in-depth dialogue (needs assessment) to determine strengths and provisions while listening and applying all available resources to help clients. Staying productive by creating outreach approaches, using observation skills, being intuitive, listening and identifying clients’ distress. Getting others together on one accord is my main agenda! I accomplish this by:[] Gaining the trust & loyalty of executives amid highly competitive markets; following up is the KEY. [] Building client relationships using a consultative approach, with longevity in mind. [] Understanding business strategies & initiatives by reading & studying corporate trends, blogs, news, and magazines (Forbes, Inc., Wired, Wall Street Journal...). This ability to please & eagerly pursue began with the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) @ the University of Chicago. There I called upon and influenced corporate members, presidents, investors, board members, policymakers & secular educators to speak about social evolution/progression and leadership concerns in the workplace. A steady practice of exchanging business ideology began at retainer-based Alexander Group as an executive search recruiter. Earlier, I was successful as an Admissions Advisor (Inside Sales~ E-Learning) with American Intercontinental University (AIU Online) in Hoffman Estates, IL. I convinced thousands of people to give distance learning, new at the time, a chance. My proudest accomplishment was helping to create a new project that collaborated with employers to sign them up to offer tuition assistance, reimbursement, guidance, and career programs to some of their full time, eligible workers.
