“Mary Gannon is an outstanding training consultant to any team looking to improve their ability to communicate effectively with customers, clients, colleagues, superiors and/or subordinates.  Mary’s style is adaptive to the needs of the group, whether the goal is to be more effective at giving presentations to large audiences or communicating effectively one-on-one with co-workers or clients.  We have engaged Mary several times over this last year.  It has been a great success.  We have seen marked improvements with even the most seasoned sales person by utilizing the tools that Mary teaches-in terms of organizing, communicating and listening-to provide the best response from the audience, large or small.  We will continue to call on Mary to help us work towards being the most effective sales team we can be.”

“In a word, Mary Gannon is “impressive,” mostly because she is an incredibly good listener.  It’s rare that I speak with a consultant who truly hears every last detail of what I’m trying to accomplish in a given project.  This is especially important for executive coaching sessions since CEO time is extremely valuable.  I would also say her finesse was extraordinary in her media and presentation session with First Industrial Realty’s CEO.”
- Sean O’Neill, SVP, Investor Relations, First Industrial Realty

“Either through individual or group sessions, Abbott managers have greatly benefited from Mary’s coaching on content organization, fielding questions and giving presentations across a variety of forums.  I noticed an immediate positive impact in how my presentations were received after adopting the skills gained through these sessions.  Mary Gannon really made everyone feel at ease.  I would highly recommend her for executive coaching to my business colleagues.”
- Gayle Kirkpatrick, Global Licensing Director, Abbott Laboratories
