As an accomplished teacher\nof both History and Music\, Chuck recognized at a young age that in\norder to support his family and attain the lifestyle he desired\, he\nneeded to step out of th e classroom. So\, Chuck stepped into sales.\nWith the same grit and determ ination that helped him overcome a severe\nchildhood stuttering condition\ , Chuck conquered fear and rejection to\nexcel as a salesman. In 1986 Chuc k partnered with a small family-run\nbusiness\, blazing its trail to becom e a publicly traded global\nenterprise. In just a dozen years his company went from sixty clients\nto 80\,000\, from $70\,000 in revenue to over a b illion dollars annually\,\nand from four employees to a staff of more than 20\,000 worldwide. How\ndid he do it? One cold call at a time.\n\nChuck P iola exemplifies leadership. He has trained hundreds of people\nin the art of sales\, management\, and relationship marketing\, and he is\na much so ught after consultant. Chuck sits on the boards of several\nnon-profit com munity organizations such as The Boy Scouts of America\,\nThe Internationa l Institute for Culture\, The Chester County Historical\nSociety\, and Reg ina Coeli Academy. He is an active member of Legatus\nand a recent inducte e to the Knights of Malta.\n\nChuck Piola defines character. Rather than s ubscribing to the notion\nthat faith life should be separated from busines s life\, Chuck’s\nfaith is the foundation for everything he has accompli shed. Speaking\nfrom experience\, and always with his innate wit\, charm\, and\nenthusiasm\, Chuck offers examples of ethical business solutions.\n DTSTART:20110119T220000Z DTEND:20110120T000000Z LOCATION:Pearlstein Business Learning Center\, 3230 Market St\, 403\, Phila delphia\, PA 19104 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
