Cheryl,
Thank you so much for the INCREDIBLE keynote presentation that you prepared for the Houston Chapter of IFMA. I, personally, thought it was one of the most entertaining and insightful presentations that I have had the pleasure of sitting through. I have gotten a lot of feedback from the attendees and the feeling appears to be unanimous; Cheryl Cran Rocks! I especially appreciate how you took the time to learn so much about our industry and incorporate it into your presentation. Spoken like a true Facilities Management Pro!–J Benjamin

We had Cheryl speak at a January 2012 conference in Atlanta in front of senior executives in the logistics, transportation and supply chain industry. She talked about changing generations at work – from Gen X to Gen Y and Zoomers. Her remarks on the changing dynamics of incorporating the work habits of all the generations was very relevant to the group from an industry known as traditional. She received very good remarks for both her presentation skills but more for her relevance as to why the dynamics matter to industry leaders and the next two or three generations of emerging leaders.

You certainly had our group buzzing with excitement during and following the presentation. You gave us some valuable insights into leading the different generations of customers and staff. I overheard lots of GenY, GenX and Zoomer discussions from our dealers for the next few days following your presentation. I would certainly recommend you to any other groups ( except our competitors, of course).

Cheryl, your keynote “On The Leading Edge of Change” was the highlight of our conference! You did a great job of wrapping up the content of our conference and provided usable strategies for our group. Amazingly your message appealed to the mixed audience of Gen X, Y’s and Zoomers and the majority of the 600 attendees rated you 5 stars.
The custom video you put together demonstrated your research and understanding of our culture and was a nice touch that personalized your message. The combination of stories, statistics and movie clips resulted in a dynamic ending to our leadership conference. It was a resounding success!SVP TD Canada Trust Western Region

Just wanted to send a big thanks and appreciation to Cheryl Cran our Keynote for our 2011 Provincial Conference. She truly was the perfect fit!
All the verbal reviews I have heard to date have been beyond positive for Cheryl and her session. In fact, the overall review seems to be that Cheryl was our best Keynote to date, and this was our 14th year. Cheryl was truly a joy to meet and I hope this is the beginning of a long relationship with NLOWE and Cheryl. I will be certain to spread the word of how great she is!

Cheryl, your keynote presentation to our ING Women’s Advisory Group “Increasing Our Momentum- Selling Across the Generations” was met with rave reviews from our group. In this ‘digital media’ age we know in the financial services industry that we have to adapt and shift our approach using technology and understanding the mindset of our Generations X and Y clients. As women in the financial industry we know we can capitalize on the trends and market movements we see happening. Your presentation provided us with research, statistics and proof that we must pay close attention to the changing buyer. In addition to the content your fun approach and ability to get everyone laughing and interacting made it all the more wonderful!
Thank you and we look forward to working with you on future projects. -
Cheryl it was great to have you as our keynote speaker for our 1500 Advisers at the FCCLA conference- your session “3 Generations, 1 Workplace” was a hit! Our group left with new awareness and more importantly great ideas on how to speak the language of Gen Y but also how to leverage technology so that every one from every generation can communicate better and with greater success. Your interactive style with the group was refreshing and having the audience text you questions was a great way to make sure people participated. Thanks for helping us make the FCCLA conference a huge success.
