Head Of Sales

we all know who Chris Voss is.......

New pet peeve: when ppl reference Chris Voss on Linked In like no one has every heard of him and they are the one going to make him popular.

I think its safe to say he is a well known figure and his book never split the difference has made it into all major lists of sales books to read since it came out in 2016

So when i see linked in posts like " There is a guy named Chris Voss...."

"In a book called never split the difference".....

Like we get it bro you just head the intro and think your hot shit.

idk why this is annoying to me but its super annoying 😂🤦‍♂️

Don’t follow Josh Braun - he basically gargles Chris Voss’ balls for breakfast

And it's the same shit over and over again. Stoicism (which I love), Chris Voss, Poke the Bear, flashcards and repeat..

I’d rather have a missed apostrophe than a gratuitous one.

Or maybe I’m getting soft.

Humans are derivatives of other humans. We can't help but copy ideas we think are good, even if we look like an ass parroting those ideas we heard from someone else

Totally. People think they’re is this magical scripture to a sale. In my experience these books are more of a helpful reminder than some ground breaking understanding.

I don't know if it's even that hot anymore. Reading is hot so reading it when it came out, sure, now... Better books out there surely

The guy is a fantastic resource.
BUT - his wife, the most filtered woman on instagram in his posts, makes his talks on authenticity and empathy lose some merit.

Is there a way to start #LinkedInfluencing but in a meta way where I’m making fun of the tech sales hype houses but also like *who gets it gets it* while also not being a jag and explicitly shitting on colleagues/“video sellers”/LI personalities…? Think neoliberalhell for LI…Asking for a friend
