I feel extremely blessed to be able to follow my heart and passion to help others through sharing years of experience across a range of industries.  When asked what I do, the short answer is: “I help people, help people!” After spending more than thirty years in the sales, marketing, training, management, and speaking arenas, I am uniquely qualified to help individuals and organizations achieve the success they desire. With vast experience over a range of industries, my value-added conceptual expertise in all aspects of business shouts out loud and clear. While going to the University of Iowa on a football scholarship, I became a licensed life insurance agent at the age of eighteen. In his first month in business, I sold over a quarter million dollars worth of insurance. It’s not hard to understand that with the years of personal selling background I have embodied, armed with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree with majors in marketing and insurance, I possess the expertise necessary to educate, empo

Cynthia Cummins sells houses in San Francisco. It’s arguably the most daunting real estate market in the U.S., where winning a 900 square-foot, 2 bedroom condo means coughing up $1.2 million in cash and doing battle with five other buyers for that dubious honor. It’s a pressure cooker where commerce and human emotions collide, and in her 30 years spent swimming in that soup, Cynthia has gained a lot of wisdom about the psychology of seeking shelter. Buying or selling property is a focus for the manifestation of every desire, neurosis, dream or value a human being can possess. And real estate is, first and foremost, about home and its deepest meaning. It’s not merely a transaction. It’s a transition. And – if you’re lucky – it offers a chance for transformation and healing. Her popular blog RealEstateTherapy.org explores the rich and complex narrative behind every home sale and reveals the ideas and guidelines that can make the experience a rewarding, life-affirming journey.   Links: RealEstateTherapy.org  --

Ive spent my career as a Chartered Accountant and management consultant helping organisations like yours better understand what drives success, and helping drive digital transformation. That might be helping you understand the true cost of the products and services your organisation supplies and the customers you serve. I help my consulting clients understand the economics of their business model and reshape it to maximise value. Ive helped private sector clients optimise profits and public sector clients deliver better value for money.I’ve been at the heart of business change projects for over 20 years, often supplying the key numbers that shape the transformation to the management team. Numbers and insight that their own finance people were unable to provide. These days I still consult, but I spend most of my time passing these skills on to other accountants and finance people like you. Most finance teams are too embedded in the accounts and the reporting spreadsheets to step back and understand the real pi

In a very uncertain world, entrepreneurs like Nigel Bennett are our best hope for the future. At a young age, Nigel was shocked to witness first-hand the real impact of oil spills on our natural world. After almost being shot down by FARC guerrillas on the Venezuela-Colombia border and being forced to escape Egypt while working for his father’s oil spill contingency planning company, he decided to break away and start Aqua-Guard Spill Response. Aqua-Guard now provides equipment and services that protect water, the planet’s most precious resource, in over 100 countries. His extraordinary journey from dyslexic high school graduate to global entrepreneur, adventurer and philanthropist has much to teach us about responsibility, freedom and the bravery that surfaces in moments when everything is on the line.  In Nigel’s book Take That Leap - Risking It All for What Really Matters, he recounts his unanticipated adventures as an entrepreneur, emerging philanthropist and always avid outdoorsman.

Jerri Williams has always been a storyteller and, after serving 26 years as a special agent in the FBI, she has plenty of stories to tell. During most of her Bureau career, she worked major economic fraud investigations and was amazed at the schemes con-artist and corrupt corporate and public officials would devise to steal other people’s money. She has also had the opportunity to work bank robberies and drug investigations. The one thing she knows for sure is, “With a gun, you can steal hundreds. With a pen, you can steal millions.” Jerri is on a mission to show the public who the FBI is and what the FBI does through her books, podcast, and blog. Using her prior professional experiences with scams and schemers, the novels in her FBI Philadelphia Corruption Squad series – Pay To Play and Greedy Givers – feature a strong but flawed female FBI agent protagonist with a troubled past. In her non-fiction book FBI Myths and Misconceptions: A Manual for Armchair Detectives, she discusses the top 20 clichés and misco
