Founder & Head Coach

Robert has spent over 30 years on stages and nearly as long as a business leader. Having spent time at companies such as ADP, Ceridian, SmashFly Technologies and GTE to name a few. Robert's history as a Marketing Vice President, playwright, director and award winning actor drove him to create the ITM Approach that pushes business people to embrace their inner performer. Using techniques derived by performing in theaters and presenting in videos, webcasts, podcasts and in full rooms at industry conferences and tradeshows the ITM Approach is appropriate for the improvement of live or virtual interactions. |
