Active Listening Skills developed as a player allowed for the successful execution of instructions that were delivered from the coach.

Personable attitude allowed for easily developed comradeship with fellow coworkers. Experience traveling to a number of different countries honed this skill.

Natural Leadership intangibles allowed for the successful ownership of a small business.

Actively seeking involvement from everyone in the process leads to greater gains. Motivation of the team is key.

Experience gained running a small business has been invaluable. Self sufficient thinking and actions have become 2nd nature.
