Jane Gentry is a sales/leadership consultant and a dynamic speaker whose presentations help you increase sales, drive business results and engage employees,by leveraging the value of business relationships.
All things being equal, the way that you engage your customer will determine your success every time. I call it Social Intelligence – and if you'd like to spark more interest, deliver a consistent and engaging message, ensure the longevity of your hard won client relationships, and stand out in a commoditized market - I'll help your team to get there.
If you are a leader. I can help you keep up with the innovative ideas and strategies that will improve the impact you have on your team and your organization.
Inspirational Leadership is the driver for profitable business. The Forbes Top 100 Inspirational Companies beat the share price of the S&P 500 by 700%! (Forbes)
Inspirational Leadership also builds, engaged, innovative and adaptable cultures. I help leaders to operationalize Inspiration and effectively lead the next generation in a rapidly changing environment.
Organizations like The Home Depot, Philips and Stryker hire Jane to help them leverage the relationship economy to grow their leaders and their business. The result is a more adaptive and innovative culture, higher engagement, more inspirational leaders and deeper client relationships.
D.C. former President of Milliken Carpet says,
"We are in it to win while others try to not lose. We look to partner with people who don't just have insight, but also have foresight. Jane is one of those people."
After her program for the Arthritis Foundation, M.W. Group Vice President said,
"The fact that you took the time to tailor your presentation around our conference objectives was very much appreciated. You've given us the tools and the motivation to move forward in our efforts to build stronger and more meaningful relationships with volunteers, staff and donors. You are a gifted speaker and communicator. Thank you for contributing such a valuable component to the conference. It was a big success!"
Jane Gentry - The Back Story
I've has studied the dynamics of relationships since my first career – professional acting. At a low point (rent due) I decided to get a "temporary" job. Someone took a chance on me. I accepted a job in sales and never looked back.
As I sold marketing services and grew in the ranks to VP of Sales, I continued to watch the nuances of business relationships and how they impacted the success of entire organizations.
Studies of high school and college students are showing that the ability to connect offline is diminishing, and that Social Intelligence skills will be among our biggest gaps in the next ten years. My parents were wrong. My MFA was a great idea! Props to Dan Pink for validating us all in his book, A Whole New Mind and forecasting that in this economy, the MFA, not the MBA would change the world. How could I not agree?
I'd love to help your organization fill the Social Intelligence gap. Let's start the conversation with a great keynote!
