He spent the last 25 years consulting with CEOs and management teams across North America and previously managed the consulting division at The Atlanta Consulting Group. He is also a member of Marshall Goldsmith’s global 100 Coaches project.

We sat down with Canic to get his take on strategic leadership initiatives.
“Look honestly at what your customer is experiencing in their own world before you look to your needs of meeting sales goals. Selling is not the purpose now; so redraw your customer journey. Life is very different. Customers need to know how your brand will help them through the ever-changing experiences in their lives.”
