Bill
Volkmann brings over twenty-five years experience and a wealth of knowledge to
our Professional Learning Center here at the Institute 4 Priority Thinking. As
an IBM salesman he learned to successfully sell outside, and as a program
manager for a large customer call center he learned the nuances of inside sales
and customer service. While he earned a good living in sales, his greatest
satisfaction comes from training, coaching and mentoring those in his charge. He
credits his membership in the American Association for Training and Development
(ASTD) for developing his knowledge and skills in becoming a Professional
Learning Strategist. He has formulated an effective-classroom-instruction
philosophy that has transformed countless content-focused training courses into
engaging and interactive learning events.
Bill is our resident trainer on meeting facilitation and competency trainer for our Priority Poller™ and Webinar technology platforms. Working with our training curriculum team, he helps support and produce effective training programs which offer attendees the greatest opportunity for self-discovery and skills development.
For over 30 years, Bill and his wife Maryanne have lived in Fairport, New York where they raised three children. As a trained and commissioned Stephen Minister he provides lay Christian care to those in his church congregation who need support in coping with many of life’s challenges. Bill is also a proud veteran, with four years of active service in the United States Navy. These experiences, combined with his many other complimentary roles in management and supervision, makes him well suited to partner with our clients to discover how the principles of Priority Thinking can transform their workplace environment.
