VP and Snr Consulting Partner, General Manager, Board Member

"It has been my pleasure to work with Laurence. Together we assessed the UKI Insurance market, identified segments of interest, and launched targeted campaigns to drive growth in those segments. I watched Laurence manage a complex organization and a large team to execute a thoughtful set of sales campaigns in a rigorous manner. Laurence is an accomplished leader, calm, innovative, and persistent. In a matter of a few months, a well-oiled machine was established and $hundreds of millions of pipeline generated. At the same time, I watched Laurence personally drive the closure of large complex deals with important clients. Laurence has the skills and experience of a proven sales leader but he is also fun and easy to work with"

"I have a passion for solving problems, setting and sharing the vision and building successful teams to create sustainable growth. I've been blessed to have worked with some exceptional leaders, teams, businesses and clients all over the world. Thankyou - you know who you are"
