Training
"Ed and I have worked together for nearly ten years within the same
workgroup or collaboratively from different business units. Our careers
took parallel directions during that time and Ed was not only a trusted
colleague but an individual that I (and many others) relied on for
current industry knowledge and trends as well as resources and tools to
produce our work more efficiently. I was always most impressed with
Ed's altruistic nature and his genuine need to see others succeed
around him."
Erin Giuliano, Internal Consultant/Process Redesign, K. Hovnanian Companies, LLC - Corporate
“It was an
absolute pleasure to work with Ed. We developed a national sales training
program together and then traveled around the U.S.delivering that program. Ed's keen
attention to detail, thorough research and strong presentation skills made this
program a smashing success. Ed is an expert communicator and passionate about
his work. He is genuine in character and truly wants his work to impact
others.”
“Ed Andriessen is the most dynamic and effective
educators I've had the pleasure to work with in my 10 years at K. Hovnanian
Homes. His development and presentation of training material is so strong that
our Corporate Operations group specifically sought his help in designing
curriculum and coursework to address self-identified professional improvement
needs. I still use his concepts and reference materials today, many years after
their original delivery - a rarity for any training course, and a testament to
his skills.”

“Ed is a
very accomplished Sales Manager with an incredibly broad back ground. His experience
in training, dimension and preference mapping and very successful background in
sales combine to make him an extremely effective sales manager. He commands the
respect of all of his reports and carries himself with a maturity and
confidence that his teams find re-assuring, especially in challenging times.
The true value Ed brings to his positions are noted when faced with difficult
market conditions.”
John Contrevo , VP Division Manager, Ryan Homes
“Mr.
Andriessen and I worked at Ryan Homes together; he was the Sales and
Marketing Manager while I ran the Service and Warranty depertment. Ed is always
enthusiastic about working together to find and address problems and potential
problems that may impact the company's bottom line. For example, Ed, aware that
his sales team could cost our division if they promised anything to a customer
that we could not deliver, contacted me to search our records to compile a list
of past problems that originated at a sales level. He then attacked that list
and trained his entire sales force to eliminate those costly mistakes. This
evolved into an ongoing program that involved other departments to make our
division more efficient. Ed's enthusiasm, positive outlook, and
forward-thinking are so powerful that they spread to others and help to create
results both inside and outside of his department.”
