Experience is a great teacher. But if you’re a sales leader, you don’t have time to learn everything based strictly on your own experiences. Even if you did, do you really want to go through all the failures, headaches, and discouragement that comes with learning the hard way?
Why not learn from the experience of other successful people?
Ken Napolitano is one of those people, and he’s with me to share insights he’s gained from more than 25 years in sales leadership roles with top-flight organizations including Bloomberg.
From perfecting the balance between pushing and pulling your team, to the role of trust in team building, and the “1 to 2 percent better” philosophy for keeping a growth mindset, this episode is packed with hard-won wisdom that can be yours just by listening.
