Speaker Bio:
With more than two decades of sales management and executive experience, Brian Brereton, known as “That Business Trainer”, has developed a sharp eye for how sales organizations get bloated with inefficiencies, cross-purposes and miscommunication — and how they can retool for a sleeker, smoother, strategically focused organization.
What began as a desire to help individuals transform the quality of their lives has grown into a career based around improving results through sales training and allows Brian to continue to focus on his passion of helping organizations large and small.
As a manager and entrepreneur who quickly built successful teams, and rapidly grown revenues and increased results himself, he also empathetically helps other managers and business leaders set priorities and create the teams, environments and results they want.
His experience in training has ranged from corporate giants in America to non-profit groups in Europe and even small retail shops.
As the author of the book Think Like A Salesman, Brian is a recognized authority on the psychology of sales, training, leadership, organizational turnaround and peak performance, and he has been honored consistently for his strategic intellect and ability to achieve results.
