I'm hoping to crowd source opinions/ideas about what you think a team lead is on a sales team.
To me, it's always been a "we aren't sure if you're ready to manage so try this out and still carry your own bag."
In my company's structure, we have an RVP, two directors, and reps under each director. With one of the teams with a less experienced director, we have a team lead that essentially coaches new reps and points people in the right direction.
I'm curious, what responsibilities should a team lead have? Only deal coaching? enablement? actually managing? team forecast or just their own?
Please let me know what you have seen, like, and dislike.
