As a sales leader you know what motivates you, the approaches that have worked for you, and what makes you a great seller and leader.

So it’s tempting to think if you turned your team into carbon copies of yourself, everybody would do great work and deliver great results!

In this episode, Matt talks with Brian Delman about how to train, motivate, and celebrate a diverse team. You’ll learn how to create a culture where everybody eagerly shares their wins and how to use each person’s unique strengths to help the team perform at its highest possible level.

Some sales leaders coach in “firefighting mode.” They offer coaching only when a performance problem arises and they expect better behavior and great results to follow.

Do you want to know the key factor that separates leaders who earn the respect and support of their team from those who don’t?

It’s investment.

As a leader, it is crucial to invest in your teammates and genuinely care about them.

Why?

Because when you demonstrate your investment in them, they are more likely to reciprocate and invest in you.

If you fail to show that you care, they won’t feel motivated to follow your lead, respect you, or provide support.

In this captivating episode, we are joined by the legendary Larry Letow, the CEO of CyberCX. Larry will generously share his extensive leadership experience and insights. You’ll learn how genuinely caring for your teammates can yield infinite returns, earning respect and appreciation effortlessly.
