C3N Speaker Recommendations

Doug Nielsen, "The Take Ownership Specialist" spoke to a sold-out crowd of C3N members at our annual holiday event. Undaunted by the challenge of delivering a motivational message in the midst of the most difficult economic times in recent history, Doug delivered in a real and meaningful way! His message and tone were dead-on in recognizing the difficult realities that people encounter, but then he took attendees a step further in exploring what they can do to take ownership of their lives and situations. Having worked in call centers himself, Doug's message really resonated.

GE Consumer and Industrial brought him back to town to kick-off a year focused on providing outstanding customer service. Sally Johnson, Chair of C3N, had this to share about his visit to GE: "Kirk did a phenomenal job. He connected with our teams immediately and drove home all of our points. This program was weeks ago, and everyone is still talking about it. He made a big impact.
