Testimonials

"Cheryl, your keynote, "Take Positive Control of the Future" was remarkable! The attendees walked away with great tools to take personal accountability and to be better leaders. Your engaging and direct delivery was refreshing to this group- they have very high standards!
Thank for helping us make the AAPS conference a huge success!

J Harry- Member Services Officer
The Association of Administrative and Professional Staff UBC

 

"Cheryl your presentations for our CSNM conference were incredible. First you had us reeling with your generation's research, technological savvy and the way we "zoomers" have to adapt in order to attract and retain the Gen Y's. Your segment with the directors set the tone for the entire conference THEN you closed our conference with your keynote "Be A Positive Control Freak" and you rocked the house! Really valuable insights on how we can each take personal accountability in order to create success- everyone was still talking about it on the post conference boat cruise.
Thank-you!

H Truber,
President CSNM 2009-2010

“The keynote delivered by Cheryl Cran at our recent Regional Management Council meeting was fantastic and the perfect ending to our 2-day meeting focused on Leadership! Participants left feeling inspired to achieve results and took with them many relevant tips in order to do so. The way that she tied in advice for leading the 4 generations in the workplace was outstanding and greatly increased awareness and understanding of generational differences - a very current and relevant topic in any workplace. Cheryl is a dynamic speaker who incorporates humor and meaningful stories and exercises to provoke discussion and fully engage her audience. The time and care that Cheryl put into understanding our environment and tailoring her delivery to our audience was very evident and appreciated. I would highly recommend her to groups/individuals (of any generation) seeking to enhance their leadership potential!"

She examines how different personality types (including our own) hear and responds to different things and how by knowing these types, we can improve our communication skills, which is a valuable asset both at home and at work. As she says, it's not what we know about communication, so much as how we use our knowledge and people skills to get the results we want.”
