Jean is an expert in the mindset mastery behind the psychology and neuroscience of sales.
She has trained and coached 1000’s of individuals and teams locally, nationally and internationally over the last 38 years. She brings simplicity to complexity and believes sales is not about HARD SELL, it’s about empowering conversations that elicit emotional connection SO pivotal to closing the sale.
Jean has led sales training and workshops with a proven success rate of increasing sales by over 30% for over 3 decades and knows that companies want the reassurance of working with a leading sales training company.
Her key point of difference is focused on the ‘inner game of sales. To improve productivity, performance, and thereby profit in a business, one needs to not only look at the linear hard skills but also the nonlinear soft skills, and interweave the two.
