Gail Sussman Miller’s Summary

I specialize in teaching executives, team leaders and women solopreneurs how to love business obstacles and overcome them with ease. The outcome is people move from fear to action and get unstuck by connecting mission and meaning to their goals.

EXECUTIVES: I help you boost your success in career transition or career building by leveraging your strengths to improve self-promotion skills, reduce conflict and increase cooperation in interpersonal interactions, and create meaningful action towards goals.

TEAM LEADERS: I help you increase collaboration and cooperation, employee engagement and entrepreneurial thinking on your team.

WOMEN SOLOPRENEURS: Learn how to find your best marketing style and strategies, identify and find your target market, and promote your services holistically and authentically.

I use a 4-step approach to help people accomplish positive change:
~~ Get really clear about what they truly want
~~ Overcome "yes, but" obstacle thinking and identify solid options
~~ Make inspired choices, and
~~ Take action through small steps.

I teach greater self- and other-acceptance and how to create more meaningful conversations and relationships. My clients and workshop participants learn to promote and operate their businesses and careers as a natural extension of who they are and what they love to do.

I have a history of making a difference as a trainer and coach teaching individuals and teams to:
* create more collaboration in business relationships; reduce conflict and stress, and get more done with less
* increase networking effectiveness for diversity group members in corporations
* expand employee engagement through more meaningful goals and initiative
* reduce anxiety about sales and selling by having consultive conversations
* increase sales by overcoming fear and engaging public speaking audiences

Gail Sussman Miller’s Specialties:

Motivational speaking and transformative training to deepen professional development, increase confidence and professional savvy, increase interpersonal effectiveness, and overcome obstacles to take action on meaningful goals.
