Twenty five years ago this summer, The Latimer Group CEO Dean Brenner thought he’d be in crunch time training for the Olympics in Sydney, Australia.
He was sailing professionally and he and his wife quit their day jobs because they thought he had a shot.
While their second place Olympic selection trial finish wasn’t the outcome they’d hoped for, it led them on a journey to starting their own business, one that is thriving, and helping other teams achieve their goals.
“One door closes, another door opens is the cliche,” said Brenner on the CBIA BizCast.
Brenner and his wife, Emily, built their business around their strengths and what they believed in–the power of effective communication.
Today, The Latimer Group employs 15 people and works with corporations around the world to provide training and coaching to people and teams on powerful and persuasive communication skills.
