Listen Technologies has announced the promotion of Mikey Shaffer to consultant liaison, where she is working directly with the AV community to ensure they are up to date on all Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and global accessibility compliance requirements in addition to keeping them informed about the company’s technologies. She will be on hand at the upcoming InfoComm 2023 show in Orlando at the Orange County Convention Center at booth 2961.
“The AV consultant community is a vital part of Listen Technologies’ business,” says Sam Nord, vice president of global sales at Listen Technologies. “We wanted to provide a dedicated point of contact to accommodate their unique needs. We look forward to Mikey transitioning to this new role and working directly with AV consultants to answer questions, help with project specifications, and offer recommendations for future development. Mikey is an outstanding champion for Listen Technologies partners, and I know she will be a great resource to the consultant community.”
Shaffer joined Listen Technologies in 2016, and most recently served as western regional sales manager in the U.S., leading a team working with dealers, integrators, manufacturer representative firms, and consultants. Prior to joining Listen Technologies, she was a telecommunications specialist and worked with low-income deaf and hard of hearing people in Utah to support their telecommunications needs.
“Mikey has worked with stakeholders throughout the AV industry and understands the unique needs of each group, as well as the big picture” says Kim Franklin, vice president of global marketing. “This perspective, and Mikey’s enthusiasm for learning, being of service, and fostering connections, will benefit Listen Technologies’ consultants and their clients and partners.”
Shaffer concludes, “I am pleased to have the opportunity to support Listen Technologies’ broad consultant community in their efforts to create inclusive and accessible spaces for all. I look forward to partnering with our consultant network on a deeper level to ensure Listen Technologies products are meeting the needs of our mutual client today and for the future.”
