On SpeedReading and SpeedReaching People:
“This session presents a framework to gain insight into how to communicate most effectively with different people based on perceived behaviors. Mark Petruzzi does a great job explaining the model, providing examples, and engaging attendees.
Hands-on practice assessing real people gives participants an accelerated learning curve. Mark’s passion for the framework is evident in the way he presents the material. His flexibility in applying different means of communication demonstrates his mastery of the model.
I anticipate very positive results as members of the team apply the concepts learned today!”

Mark has great skill in creating a safe and empowering space for you to connect with your own guidance and come up with your own solutions. He was able to pick up on my potential blind spots and see what might be stopping me from getting what I want.
I gained many helpful practices and insights in my "toolbox" that allowed me to let go of what wasn't serving me and move forward with more clarity and confidence. And his experience with the Enneagram and other spiritual/personality teachings gave me greater understanding of my patterns and tendencies. I highly recommend him!

"I found Mr. Petruzzi’s positive, down-to-earth personality to be quite refreshing. It’s obvious that he’s very passionate about the information that he’s providing and I highly recommend him for whatever position he is seeking.
The world would be a much better place if he were given the opportunity to inspire more people!"
