Small Talk About Big Deals - Paperback

Yandoh Harris, Kate: - After living and teaching English in the Netherlands and Belgium, Kate returned to her home country to work for The Coca-Cola Company, where she wrote speeches for the CEO and other executives. An early adopter of social media and content marketing, she learned to inventively capture attention and develop international tourism markets, before her curiosity took her to the tech sector to help nonprofits amplify their impact using digital marketing and AI. She has served numerous arts organizations as a Board member, marketer, and occasional performer in plays, musicals, and band battles.Kennedy, Edwin H.: - "Edwin Kennedy didn't exactly have a smooth ride through youth and school. He fought his way through and, like so many looking for a sense of purpose, found himself in the Military Intelligence Service at a young age. It was there that he caught the bug for automation, habit breaking, and flipping conventional wisdom on its head. When an IT company dangled the bait to kickstart his career, the psychological tests all pointed to one thing: this guy was born for commerce. He took that talent and ran with it, co-developing a Fraud Analysis System for Banks that got the attention of a major American outfit in Texas. They wanted him to build their Financial Industry Group from scratch-no small feat, but Edwin was never one to shy away from a challenge.Then life threw him a curveball - family changes that made him rethink his priorities. So, he did what most wouldn't dare: he walked away from the corporate grind and chased what really set his soul on fire-growth. His journey took him across continents, working with companies in Europe, India, The Caribbean, and the USA, where he stumbled upon his second great love: cultures. During an MBA program, he found what felt like the missing piece: the power of sharing knowledge. Edwin poured these passions into his company, SalesPulse, a beast of a business dedicated to driving the growth of international companies. He'll tell you he's almost egoless-an interesting claim in the world of commerce-because, in his mind, it's all about collaboration and connecting with like-minded souls. The motto? "Grow together.""
