-ASHLEE STEINKE - NORTH CENTRAL REGION- REGIONAL OPERATIONS MANAGER
Darren Kittleson recently taught "Win with Sellers" to a sold-out class in Chicago, and it was among the best-received training that has been offered here in the Mid-American Region! Our students specifically appreciated Darren's obvious mastery of the material and his ability to speak from experience - he clearly "walks his talk". He covered all of the material, keeping the pace of the class brisk yet allowed for significant interaction with our students, who remained engaged the entire day. Above all, Darren made this class about meeting the needs of our agents and delivering actionable strategies, as opposed to entertaining them. His humble, yet direct style was a breath of fresh air and you can be certain that Darren will be teaching in our Region again (and again)!
