We built Soul LIke Fire because talented teams deserve better
Our Story
After years inside Fortune 100 companies and small businesses, Brianna and Ben Jagim saw the same pattern repeat: teams trained on content that didn’t match their actual gaps, measured rarely, and left to figure out the human side of performance on their own.
The result was predictable: stalled growth, frustrated managers, and high turnover. Not because the people weren’t capable. Because no one had given them the right framework.
Soul Like Fire works with organizations that generic training companies overlook. We combine the most validated sales assessment methodology in the market, through our partnership with Objective Management Group, with expert keynotes and training built around the skills that actually drive results: emotional intelligence, communication, and influence.
We don’t do cookie-cutter programs. Whether you’re booking us for a keynote, a training engagement, or a full sales diagnostic, everything starts with understanding your people and your specific challenges. Then we build from there.

Ben Jagim: Co-founder & business development
M.S. International Affairs, Texas A&M | OMG Partner | 10+ Years Small Business Development | U.S. State Department Experience

He holds a Master’s degree in Diplomacy and Intelligence from Texas A&M University and has over a decade of experience in account management, small business development, and high-stakes negotiation. His work with the U.S. State Department and time teaching and consulting in China gave him a fluency in cross-cultural communication that translates directly into sales team coaching. Particularly around influence, trust-building, and navigating complex buyer dynamics.
Ben’s facilitation style is direct, practical, and grounded in real-world application. He specializes in the interpersonal mechanics of selling: how people communicate under pressure, how to read a room, and how to build the kind of credibility that turns prospects into long-term clients.
As President-Elect of the Rotary Club of Highland Park/Highwood and an active member of multiple chambers of commerce, Ben is deeply embedded in the Chicago North Shore business community. The same community many of Soul Like Fire’s clients call home.
Why We're Different
Most training companies give you a program. We give you a system.
As Certified Partners of Objective Management Group, the most validated sales assessment tool used by 35,000+ companies worldwide, we don’t guess where your team needs help. We measure it. Then we build training around those specific gaps. Then we validate the improvement.
Brianna brings Fortune 100 training rigor and Challenger Sales methodology. Ben brings cross-cultural communication expertise and deep roots in the business community. Together, we cover the full picture: the technical skills that build pipeline, and the emotional intelligence, communication, and influence skills that close it.
