Showdown...
On one side of the ring, we have an inspiring leader. The “*Michelle Obama” of Sales Managers. The ultimate coach. Confident and empathetic. Strives for value. Has a positive approach towards sales and life. Pushes you hard, when needed. Ready to take the bullet for you. Supports you throughout your career. Being around her is both fun and exciting.
On the other side, we have a run-of-the-mill feeder. The “Debby Downer” of Sales Management. The ultimate roach. Wicked and cruel. Strives for volume. Has an ancient approach to everything. Throws you under the bus, when needed. Ready to belittle you. Working for her is like trying to run a marathon with a ball & chain attached to your ankle.
As they prepare to face off, the tension is palpable. The winner is determined to defeat the villain and rid the sales world of vanity metrics, the need to create urgency all the time, and updating CRM after every 5 seconds. The fate of the world of sales hangs in the balance.
Who will emerge victorious in this epic battle of good versus evil? Michelle Obama or Debby Downer? Only time can tell.
But meanwhile, The War Room can tell us more...
What is your story of the Best and Worst Sales manager you’ve had?
