CHERYL CRAN CSP
Leadership, Communications
Performance-Improvement Expert
Throughout her entire corporate
career Cheryl Cran's progress as a successful leader was based
on her boldness and ability to take positive action.
Her first leadership role was in her
early 20's in the banking industry. She was highly successful due to
her action-oriented and results-focused style. The fifteen successful
years she spent in the corporate sector included the calm handling of
a series of violent bank robberies, which resulted in an immediate
promotion to the 2nd highest robbery-prone bank. Cran led that branch
to increase its overall performance and helped it achieve 'one of the
top three' branch status.
She was quickly promoted to
management in lending and became the first female mortgage development
area manager. Under her leadership, the mortgage portfolio doubled
within 1 year. Subsequently she was hired by a mortgage insurance
corporation to lead their insurance division for developers. Within
two years, Cran increased market penetration to equal that of the
largest single competitor in the industry. From there she headed up a
brand new mortgage program and grew the portfolio to ten million in
ten months.
Cran grew up in an entrepreneurial
family and wanted to turn her success for earning companies great
profits into her own consulting practice. Twelve years ago, she
started her first business and sold it at a six-figure profit. Today
she consults with numerous corporations looking to grow their people
and their profits specializing in the home-building and financial
industries.
Her books on the subject of
communications and leadership include Say What You Mean - Mean What
You Say, 50 Ways to Lead and Love It! and her newest
release Control Freak Revolution. Her articles have appeared in
numerous publications including Selling Power Magazine, Builder Woman
Magazine, Reader's Digest and Small Business Canada Magazine, and her
profile, in BC Business Magazine.Cheryl Cran’s diverse experience and
background allows her to connect with a variety of different
audiences. Brave, flexible, open to challenge and willing to see
opportunity in change, she inspires others to believe that success is
the result of a bold and focused take-action attitude.
