Gary Colleran, B.A. (Hons), C.M.C.T.

Gary graduated from Bedford College of Higher Education in 1990 and went on to work within SmithKline Beecham Pharmaceuticals for 10 years in a number of roles within Sales; Training & Development; and Sales Management.  During his time there he won awards for highest performance in each of these roles.

In 1999 Gary became one of the first of a select group of trainers and consultants to have passed the rigorous requirements and training in order to earn their Cialdini Method Certification. Dr Robert Cialdini - the most cited living social psychologist in the world today – developed his extensive research as a professional resource to improve organisational and personal performance by deploying ethical influence strategies.  Compelling, ethical and proven by scientific methodology, Dr. Robert Cialdini's work is sought after for its transformational message and results-oriented application and Gary’s knowledge and understanding of this work is applied to the client solutions he develops.

Through his pharmaceutical industry experience, Gary has seen where many sales force effectiveness projects have been successful and unsuccessful and by contrasting these experiences he has identified implementation as a critical factor.  It is in response to this experience that under his entrepreneurial leadership, over the past decade Sales interAction have developed their AdvanceTM and Appraise products and achieved great success in improving sales performance for their clients.

Gary's customers have many words of thanks and support:

"I am delighted to highly recommend Sales interAction. They have delivered excellent value to my business across many years. I'm just glad we've been paying them on a fixed rate basis (and not a percentage share in the success that they have helped us to deliver). Their groundbreaking Advance system is a Leadership Team's dream come true. Thank you!"
