Gemological Institute Of America To Offer Leadership Training

CLIFTON PARK, NY (01/08/2008; 1154)(readMedia)-- Clifton Park, NY -based CBG Training and Development is pleased to announce that it has been retained by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) to conduct a series of Leadership Development Training to its management staff located in New York City.

Dale R. Kelley, President and Senior Consultant with CBG said, “I am honored and very excited to be asked by the GIA to work with their leadership team.”

Established in 1931, GIA is the world’s largest and most respected nonprofit institute of gemological research and learning. Conceived 75 years ago in the grand tradition of Europe’s most respected institutes, GIA discovers, imparts and applies gemological knowledge to ensure the public trust in gems and jewelry.

With 1,100 employees, the Institute’s scientists, diamond graders, and educators are regarded, collectively, as the world's foremost authority in gemology.

CGB Training and Development, offers sales and customer service training for private businesses as well as government agencies. Kelley, who has experience with large corporations, local government and small businesses, had spent the prior ten years as Deputy Commissioner of Real Property Management and Development for the NYS Office of General Services. There he helped turn that agency from one that consistently got low grades from its customers to one that provided a high level of positive experience to its internal as well as external customers.
