Christine’s knowledge and expertise in New Business Development and Professional/Business Networking, is awesome. But even more beneficial to those of us who have the opportunity to be engaged with her, her ability to share and communicate her wisdom and her NBD concepts is world-class. My wish for you is that you have the chance, as I did, to connect with Christine.

I first met and worked with Christine, as a Business Leadership Coach and Trusted Advisor, some four years ago. At the time, Christine was the Director of Practice Development at a mid-size accounting firm, located in Houston, Texas. During my initial year in working with Christine, it became clearer and clearer to me, that her knowledge, skills and abilities were not being maximize to their fullest potential. Christine was an entrepreneur, just waiting for the right moment in her professional life. Her insights in the field of New Business Development are truly visionary. Since those early days in our relationship, Christine has gone on to found her own enterprise, Strategic Catalyst, a professional services firm that partners with clients to assist them in their development of New Business Development tactics and the most effective and cost efficient processes and programs to carry out and support their strategies and tactics. Energy, passion and customer centric and caring demeanor all combine to make her a truly valued New Business Development Consultant, Trainer-Coach and Trusted Advisor.

Christine Spray was a Keynote Luncheon Speaker at the Spring Accounting Expo on May 19, 2016. She wowed over 1,000 CPAs with her presentation on Strategically Networking for Success. Christine’s speaking style is engaging and held the interest of the large crowd for an hour. You could tell the CPA audience was attentive throughout the speech by the laughs from her anecotes. The content of her speech was well geared for the crowd and pertinent to the attendees. Christine gave the crowd a new perspective on Networking, motivation to actively to engage in the task and a strategy for how to be more successful. Christine’s PowerPoint Presentation was well developed, logical in its flow and provided many great nuggets of information. Christine has been a popular speaker for the Houston Society for several years. She is knowledgeable in multiple topics and will deliver a professional and interesting speech. I highly recommend Christine if your organization needs a Keynote, luncheon or topic speaker for your group.

I am honored to write a recommendation for Christine. Christine is an accomplished author, public speaker, business coach and business development professional. She helped me drive my top line revenue and worked with me to refine some of my personal habits as well. Beyond her business development, networking skills and public speaking, Christine cares about people and about their success. She is not afraid of asking tough questions and helping you evaluate current habits to be even more effective. Christine teaches practical ways to drive connections, give back, help others and build revenue. If you have a chance to meet Christine, she will be a connection for life.

We recently had Christine speak to the NW Houston Business Professional Women (NWBPW) at our monthly luncheon. Her message and passion in delivery were spot on. Christine was relatable and motivated the audience into action. “What I found unique about Christine’s presentation was that she quoted a problem and actually gave solutions. So many times speakers just tease; she actually gave good usable solutions,” said Elaine Farrell, Secretary NWBPW and All Star Pet Sitting Services Owner. NWBPW President-Elect, Vivian Lewis, and owner of My Picqasso, shared “My top favorite thing Christine shared is to move an item only three times. If you have to move it to a different date, the 3rd time, you must do it!” Thank you, Christine for an excellent presentation!

Christine recently assisted the Board of Directors of FEI Houston with networking tips. We only had about 30 minutes and Christine was able to quickly and clearly lay out several specific strategies for better networking. Several board members commented on the usefulness and relevance of the information.

I recently had Christine speak at our Houston Business Networking group and she was a knock-out. Without a doubt, she is superb at providing any business valuable insight to give them a winning edge. Her background, passion and overall personality will resonate with any audience. In multiple appearances that I have been a part of, when her presentation concluded, there were audiences waiting in line to connect with her and receive more wisdom that she has to offer. I highly recommend Christine to any business or individual.
