I had the privilege of working with Cheryl over the first couple of months of the year to gain a better understanding of the cultures, nations, and styles represented on my project teams. With Cheryl as my coach, we were able to look at the approach I took in leading my project teams to gain improved commitment to tasks and to facilitate progress toward meeting our customer’s needs and expectations. We first identified the areas for improvement and Cheryl then provided the resources and tools to help me make the changes. Additionally, She was present every step of the way to provide input and guidance as I worked to implement those changes. Working with Cheryl is likely the most uncomfortable I’ve been in a while in the context of personal and professional development – and I mean that in the best way possible! I believe that I’ve grown tremendously with Cheryl as my coach and I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for a coach, now is as good a time as ever to partner with Cheryl! You won’t regret it!

I have had the privilege of working with Cheryl for almost 15 years after first taking her “Customer for Keeps” training in 2006. She is one of the most dynamic and engaging trainers that I have ever met. Her “Customers for Keeps” training in 2006 had a significant impact on me. I can honestly say that the techniques she taught have stayed with me in what I do each day. It enhanced my listening skills, guides my approach in negotiating and conflict resolution and has greatly improved my customer engagements. These skillsets are key to building the trust and respect critical to success with internal and external customers. Over the years, we’ve had Cheryl provide numerous trainings within our organization as it does provide practical skills that have demonstrated positive results. If you are seeking to provide truly “Extraordinary Customer Experience” to drive business results, I highly recommend her training courses as she will give each participant the actionable tools and techniques to achieve it.

Joseph Bolewitz — USCTO, Vice President of Engineering at TE Connectivity

I worked with Cheryl over the last six weeks to improve my customer interactions (both external customers/suppliers and internal customers — my manufacturing and quality teams in the plant). Needless to say, Cheryl’s guidance enabled me to make huge strides in the way I interact with my clients and my teammates. I am young in my career and still have a lot to learn, but I already feel worlds more confident in clarifying what is requested of me to truly complete a task successfully, recognizing that I need to respect my own schedule (otherwise, who else will?), and leveraging my inexperience to my advantage to create constructive dialogue. Conversations with Cheryl flowed effortlessly and I found it easy to explain to her my struggles and my strengths — and she picked up on many I did not know myself. She gave me some challenging assignments, but as soon as I implemented a new outlook or approach into my work day, things changed for the better for me. I cannot recommend Cheryl enough if you are looking for coaching!

I have been privileged to work for two different companies that hired Cheryl as a trainer and coach for its leadership teams and personnel. Each time I participated in Cheryl’s training I’ve come away learning something new – without exception. Her content is extremely thorough, and it has made a difference each time we implemented her training. Cheryl is a fantastic communicator and teacher at every level of an organization. Her ability to add value to whomever she speaks with has been a tremendous advantage.

It has been over four years since Cheryl Crumb was introduced to the Extrudex Team.

Although we had multiple in depth preliminary discussions with Cheryl about what it was we were trying to achieve with her training/coaching, we could not have been prepared for what was to come in the months ahead during her sessions.

The self-awareness that Cheryl was able to make happen was an art. She started the session by telling everyone that it was up to each individual as to what they would take from the training…..it was truly a self-strengthening opportunity. Although the sessions were designed to help develop our Leadership Team at work, no one can deny that these tools gained during Cheryl’s training can be used on every aspect of life.

Grant Jardine — CanadaPlant Manager at Extrudex Aluminium

I have had the pleasure of knowing Cheryl Crumb since 2 years ago. Time flies! I still remember I met her the first time in Los Angeles for a Sales Training – “Getting to Commitment” that organized by Season Group. I was impressed with Cheryl’s enthusiasm to share, observation on people behaviors and ability of asking questions in a professional way. Since then, I had chance to join more customer service trainings ran by her and even organized several training classes with her. She is not only my coach now, but also my best friend. She inspired me to think more and encouraged me to express and act bravely in difficult situations. She made me to realize that I have a few strengths that I did not even notice before. She certainly helps me to understand myself better, let me keep learning and improving. Cheryl would be a true asset for anyone who desired for better personal development and polishing communication skill, so here comes with my heartfelt recommendation. Thanks Cheryl!

Cheryl is one of the most engaging consultants and trainers we have had the pleasure of working with. Her presentations are insightful, interesting and always informative; tailored to our company’s specific needs. She has a plethora of topics to choose from – you could work with Cheryl for many weeks and probably not get to learn the same thing twice! Her astounding memory for names allows her to personally interact with every attendee (we haven’t seen her limit yet but there have been 25 people in the room and she seems to be able to mention each by name after having been introduced only once!)
