A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Suzanne Potts is a motivational speaker and an expert in assertiveness, who specialises in keynote speaking for industry conferences, corporate events and charity forums. Her passion for spreading assertiveness and negotiation skills into cultures, industries and countries has taken her to the war-torn territories of the former Yugoslavia, the military culture of Pakistan, Belarus and other communist style Republics. In the UK, she works within all industry sectors including retail, banking, pharmaceutical and charity.
Suzanne began her career in sales and distributions, managing diverse sales teams across many continents and cultures. By the mid 80’s working for Xerox, she reached the most senior sales operational post ever achieved by a woman. More recently she has been working with the government and senior women from the FTSE 500 companies in supporting the aims of the 'Davies' report to promote more women into the Boardroom.
Since becoming the Director of Teamskills, audiences throughout the world have benefited from Suzanne's expertise.
