Summary
Connected Leaders Academy My talk will focus on how to prepare for your moment BEFORE opportunities present themselves. Many people begin their preparation after they identify the job they want. They then look at the requirements and develop the needed skills. However, the most successful people STAY READY by: - mastering universal fundamentals needed for any job. - proactively learning from experts in their areas of interest - generating character advocates to speak on their behalf Cedric started his professional career as an officer in the US Army, followed by a corporate career that spanned three decades. Upon leaving the military, he joined Abbott Laboratories, where he spent twenty-seven years in multiple sales and marketing roles, including: - Sales Executive - Advertising Product Manager - Regional Sales Director - Global Director of Sales Operations Throughout his tenure, Cedric and his teams consistently achieved recognition for high performance and commercial excellence. From his success with Abbott, Cedric was recruited by Carrier Global to build and lead a new commercial Revenue Operations department as its Global Director. In that capacity, he led a team that generated double-digit revenue growth, and within three years, their annual revenue increased from $615 million to $1.2 billion. Recently retired from a thirty-year corporate career, Cedric is now the founder and Owner of Peak Performance Leadership Institute. In his transition from Corporate to Community, Cedric is on a crusade to ensure that small businesses have the same level of financial success as large corporations like Abbott and Carrier.
