"The resume and cover letter from MichaelTrains allows me to make a very professional first impression" “An excellent trainer and leader…tremendous coach and team builder.”

“Michael is very creative in keeping sales teams motivated, even during challenging times.  Michael was a role model for the sales teams.”

“Michael was always willing to take the time to assist us with anything we needed to close a sale, such as contract negotiations and deal structures.  Michael took a sincere interest in our personal and professional success and was always there when we needed him.  Michael motivated us when sales were low and make us feel appreciated when things were going well.”

“Michael was very good at managing the sales cycle and keeping everything focused. He kept everyone directed towards closing the deals.”

“Michael always took the time to listen and act on the problems/concerns that the salespeople and management brought to his attention. Michael was very appreciative of his employees and was quick to hand out praise when due.  He had an uncanny way to lighten a situation with humor that raised people’s spirits.  Michael had the most integrity of any manager I have worked with.”

“Michael worked very well with his peers in other departments (Marketing, Development, etc…).  This allowed him to always keep the big picture in mind when making decisions and planning strategy.  Michael always operated with the best interest of the company in mind."

“Michael Kaplan possesses the combination of a quick grasp of broad strategic objectives as well an ability to define the details of a programmed approach to achieving those goals. What makes this “big picture/small picture” aspect distinguishing in Michael is his integral push to execute. Team building, leadership and a ceaseless positive approach by Michael have made my experience with him one of the highlights of my own nearly 25 year professional life. It has always been my belief that the abilities to build and move forward are key basic values for any activity or any organization. Michael achieves these with intelligence and humor – again, necessary components in a competitive environment."

“I had the pleasure of working with Michael for nearly a year. In that time, I found him to be a tremendous manager. Michael is a very strong team builder and leader. He possesses a manner of working with people that make them want to perform for him. With a refreshing work ethic, he leads by example. Creativity, integrity and sincerity are by far his strongest attributes. It is for these reasons that I feel Michael would be an incredible addition to any organization looking for strong and extremely capable leaders for a management consulting position."

“I trust Michael to do what is right for me.  He is truly professional, and I highly recommend him to my peers”
