Detroit Business Consulting Promotes Katelyn Grubb!

 

Detroit Business Consulting had an exciting day yesterday as Katelyn Grubb was officially promoted to Assistant Management....and the theme was purple and promotion! After joining the company just eight short months ago, Katelyn went from coaching tennis to coaching an entire sales team. She joined Detroit Business Consulting because it was an atmosphere she could relate to. Katelyn explained, "I played tennis at the collegiate level and have a very competitive personality. I could instantly relate to that here with the group of leaders I saw at the company and the competitive drive everyone had."

When speaking about Katelyn, manager Kyle Norman said, "I saw Katelyn make a real transition with her ability to maintain the attitudes of others. It's easy to stay motivated and positive yourself, but it's a whole different skill to be able to keep a team and an office trained, motivated and positive.

What's the next step for Katelyn? There are multiple markets that are open for her to move to once she earns a management position.  Over the next few months, she will be focused on learning the back-end logistics of the office to make the transition from assistant manager to manager!

Detroit Business Consulting Hosts Leadership Conference

The Midwest Leaders Conference was overflowing this year…literally! Offices from Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and Toronto met in Troy, Michigan for a day full of learning and networking. The conference was tailored toward three main groups – those who were 8 weeks and under, 8 weeks and over and the administrative teams. Each group had 5 managers speak with them about their own experiences and offer words of advice to help them grow and advance quickly through the management training program. 

Michael Rosenberg closed the conference speaking about the expansion availability for the Midwest. “We have huge clients that are waiting for us to be ready to expand for them,” Michael explained.  “We’ve got to stay focused, apply what you have learned today, and put yourself in a position to be managing and running a campaign by the next time we again for an event.”

Following the conference, everyone went to a local bar and grille for a 301 darts tournament. There were 38 teams total in the single-elimination competition.  After hours of intense play, Robby Rech and Elizabeth Reichert from Detroit took home the trophy!  Now, Robby will already have his first trophy to take to his office when he opens up on his own campaign.

Detroit Business Consulting Watches National Champtionship Game

It was a long evening watching Ohio State take on Oregon last night in the National Championship game! We all gathered at a local bar and grill to watch the game and eat bottomless wings. It was a mixed crowd with some people cheering on the scarlet and gray and others rooting for the Ducks, whose jerseys seem to change every week. It was a fun time for all of us to get together and enjoy the end of college football.
