accounting conference. His topic, “Getting Simple: Cutting Through
the Clutter with Clients and Employees”, provided the participants

the plethora of information we deal with on a daily basis has
relevance in any training arena. I am excited about working with
him again.”

presenter to close the first day of the Braintrust International

exactly what the Braintrust Conference leadership team wanted
and expected.”
