I have invited Bobbie to present two workshops to our West Region Sales Team on ‘Creating a Strategic Approach to Sales’, which is so relevant in our competitive and disruptive environment. Her experience as a successful sales executive together with a science-based approach to developing a possibilities mindset has helped our team consistently exceeded our sales targets. Thank you, Bobbie, for giving us the competitive edge we need.
Bobbie is both inspiring and entertaining. At our All Hands meeting, she shared the keys to handling challenges we face as busy professionals in Silicon Valley. “What is Your 140.6 Challenge?” helped translate how athletic strategies and disciplines such as perseverance, mental toughness, and resilience can be applied to our professional and personal lives. It was a great way to kick off the year and provide a gift to the Team. I would recommend her to any corporate audience who is looking for that extra edge to deal with all that is being demanded of us as we go about our busy lives.
Bobbie: hearing your TED talk has had an incredible impact on me. From now on it will be written in stone on my mind: “Balancing loss with opportunity.” You have given to those who listen to it an amazing gift….one that changes our perspectives. THANK YOU!
