Who is Poul?
It's pronounced like "Paul," just a little more Danish.
Poul started out in deathcare— yep, that's right! Funeral homes and cemeteries and crematories, oh my!— and quickly realized his legal skills at risk mitigation and love of public speaking transcended the field and applied to all businesses.

He has some pretty memorable stories to share that you won't find anywhere else, and is a great guy to grab a drink with after (or during!) the presentation.

Poul uses his expertise in law to highlight ways sales professionals can learn a thing or two-actually the program shares five!- from an unlikely teacher.

How Ethics Determine Your Company's Success
Your company's unseen actions-those done under cover of darkness or behind closed doors-portray its values in the light.
Poul will help you understand and infuse ethics into your business. Ethics are fraught with common misconceptions such as: "I know what ethics are," "If it's legal, it must be ethical," "My employees know right from wrong," and "If no one ever finds out, no harm is done."
