Scott Asalone is partner and co-founder of ASGMC. He co-founded the firm to inspire and guide people in business to be their very best, through the use of his motivational speaking skills and management development expertise.

Scott brings a uncommon background to the field of adult learning. A management development executive with global financial services firm Merrill Lynch, Scott worked with executives responsible for sales and profitability in their branches, as well as with their salespeople. He managed a corporate-wide assessment center, helping to select high-potential leaders for intensive career development. He also designed, developed, and trained these executives, including customized training, consulting, and coaching.
