Established in 1980, the CSP is the speaking profession's international measure of speaking experience and skill. Less than 13 percent of speakers worldwide hold this professional designation, and they are considered the best of the best in their areas of expertise. Grossman was honored during a ceremony on July 23 at Influence 2016, NSA's annual convention in Phoenix, AZ.

A wide range of executives, including CEOs, vice presidents, directors, entrepreneurs and other high potential leaders and communication professionals have benefitted from Grossman's results-driven approach to leadership and communication.

"You can use communication to make substantial changes to help a company, or team, go from 'good to great' or create a lasting legacy through a new strategic direction," Grossman says.

"You can use communication for high impact by coaching and mentoring, to prevent the skeptics and naysayers from spiraling into a negative pattern, or help a struggling individual find the courage and the map to make real change."

With real-life examples and measurable methodologies, Grossman shows leaders how communication is more than just a "feel good" element in any company. He teaches how to use leadership and communication to create engaged employees and bottom-line growth.

Some of his highly sought-after topics include:

Respectful Authenticity: Bringing Your Best to Work and Bringing Out the Best In Others
No Cape Needed: Improve How You Lead and Communicate by Leaps and Bounds
How to Think Like a CEO and Other Must-do Strategies to Improve Your Leadership, Especially With Limited Budgets

Whether speaking to a large group of leaders, helping leadership teams build trust and become even more high-performing or coaching executives, Grossman offers inspiration, motivation, and actionable strategy. He teaches his audiences critical skills that they implement immediately for measurable change.
