Biography
Over the last 30 years Ann has trained and consulted with thousands of executives, managers and employees throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and the Caribbean.
Her passion is helping her clients function as high performance teams that effectively deliver the results they envision. Her focus is on leadership development, strategic Human Resource initiatives, Customer Service programs and utilizing the powerful series of resources within The Predictive Index™.
Ann’s organizational development background began with her work as an Assistant Dean of Students with the University of Denver. She continued to refine her facilitation and program development skills as the Director of Training & Program Development for CareerTrack — who at the time was one of the worlds largest providers of learning solutions. She often jokes that she gained the equivalent of an MBA as a leader within this fast growing company that went from 10 million in sales to 65 million within a few short years of her being there.
Her career pivoted after that when she became an international trainer and HR leader for Sonesta Hotels. She continued to deliver learning and development programs while she learned the inter-workings of the hospitality business. Ann fast became the “go to” person for her General Manager to use to help lead various operational departments and divisions when there were management gaps or when there were challenges in those areas. After a few years of this, she decided it was time to start her own training and consulting business.
Throughout this time, Ann was an avid user and promoter of The Predictive Index. She was certified in The Predictive Index behavioral assessment 29 years ago and she has used the PI effectively both as a client, and over the last 12 years, as a PI consultant. She’s an old school PI expert with a deep understanding of the science behind The Predictive Index. Ann enjoys the new PI offerings around Design - Dream Teams and Diagnosis - Employment Engagement. You won’t find anyone more excited about how the PI impacts company cultures and drives impressive results than Ann!
She has a bachelor’s degree from the University of Northern Colorado and has done graduate work in Higher Education at the University of Denver.
Norton Training's Philosophy About Working Together:
At this point in Ann’s career, she is focused on high impact strategic human capital work with client companies that are dedicated to better targeted hiring, succession planning and performance improvement with their management teams. That’s what drives change organizationally.
Due to Ann’s commitment to her clients, and the investment she makes back to them in on-going support, she is selective regarding the new organizations she takes on. It has to be the right fit both for the company and for Ann. She absolutely loves what she does and wants to partner with clients that are equally passionate about continuous improvement with their most valued resource; the people on their teams.
