“I introduced Leigh St John to my Senior Field Managers in May 2006 whereby she presented a short workshop around her new book “Discovering Your Passion”. Because the book is presented in journal style, I found it extremely effective in getting my Sales Managers to ‘activate’ the learnings themselves, as well as using some of the exercises to encourage their teams to improve their performance. Because the book is not ‘War and Peace’, it is an easy read and quite visual which generally appeals to sales oriented people. Many training programs cover ‘what’ has to be learned but very few instill ‘how’ the activities have to be performed to get the best results. This journal does this and adds a little inspiration for good measure.” Maureen Mulligan, State Sales Manager, Nutri Metics (part of the Tupperware Group of Companies)
