Robert L. Albin
Robert L. Albin co-founded American Salesmasters, Ltd., a worldwide sales and management training firm. The company presented large sales rallies annually in 35 major cities throughout the U.S., Canada, and Australia, featuring world-famous authors and speakers from the business industry. As the company expanded into 18 countries worldwide, the demand for American sales expertise led the company to produce and market audio tapes, films, and videos.
Albin was retained as CEO of American Salesmasters after its sale to a public company in 1980 before leaving to launch a management consulting firm, Albin Management Consultants, in 1982. The firm was sold in 1995 to First Data Corp., a Fortune 500 New York Stock Exchange company. Albin followed the acquisition to First Data, where he was named division president for Domestic Retail Services, responsible for MoneyGram, a worldwide money transfer company, and American Express money orders. He later became president of First Data Payment Services and chief operating officer of Western Union North America.
Albin served on 30-plus boards of directors of both for-profit and nonprofit organizations. He is a past chairman of the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce, Mountain States Employers Council, Mile High United Way Campaign, Junior Achievement-Rocky Mountain, and the Mayor’s Committee for Design of Denver International Airport.
