Soar to Success asked Leanne to outline three
traits that she found in successful people.
Here’s what she shared:

even when things go wrong … as they almost
always do!
DETERMINATION/PERSISTENCE – Leanne

their situations on a much deeper level now. She

small business owners and sales professionals!

Leanne is also expanding her speaking
engagements to include companies, clubs,
organizations and associations all over the country
