Christie knows firsthand what motivates people to change their ways — and she knows how to restart lost momentum and help anyone muster the courage to overcome even the most daunting obstacles. She works with individuals and teams who want to learn skills that not only impact their lives, but help them influence everyone with whom they come into contact.
Christie employs accelerated learning techniques and designs curriculum that speaks to today’s adult learner. Her programs are uplifting, and always teach you something!
For seven years, she coached and managed 200 of the best professional trainers around the world for CareerTrack , Inc. She has been incredibly successful not only professionally, but personally, changing direction in her mid-40’s to lead a multi-million dollar sales team, shepherding her daughter though a bone-marrow transplant while working full time, and maintaining a 90 pound weight loss since 1985.
Christie is past president for the American Society of Training and Development (ASTD)-Rocky Mountain Chapter, and is the current President Elect for the National Speakers Association of Colorado (NSA). She is the only person to have received “Member of the Year” twice for NSA (in 2008 and 2009) for creating the Colorado Speaker’s Academy for emerging speakers. In 2000, she personally coached the World Champion of Public Speaking for that same year. She hit another career milestone in 2009, earning the CSP (Certified Speaking Professional) designation, an honor bestowed upon less than 10% of professional speakers across the globe.
