I gotta be honest, @YinYang, I am not looking at any online leadership courses and likely never will be.

Big mistake: you assume the audience wants to enroll in a leadership course.

Is it unfeasible to assume the leaders on bravado have a growth mindset? ๐Ÿค”

I would start by assessing appetite for leadership development courses. Are people interested in them, have they ever taken one to know what they are lacking? Build the conversation form the basis of demand instead of the assumption.

It's like barging into a room telling everyone they need corrective lenses when it was a blind academy and no one has a use for them.

have to know the audience. Those corrective lenses very well could have been sunglasses if you asked the right questions.

You asked a question that cannot be answered without assessing the demand for the service first.

Closest thing I will do is a MasterClass Leadership course, but thats more I really like the instructor compared to the actual training

My hypothesis is that 90% of the so-called "leaders" (at least in Sales) are, in reality, dashboard managers and CRM hygienists. I'd love to see an online leadership course on what real leadership actually is, what it takes, and more importantly - what it's NOT.

If you make a course on this, you'd also figure out if there's actually a demand for courses on leadership or not @YinYang

Couldnโ€™t agree more; most โ€šleadersโ€™ are in fact โ€šmanagersโ€™ - BIG difference. In your opinion, what is NOT real leadership?

โ€œwe need to create urgencyโ€

โ€œwe need to get C level folks on the demoโ€

โ€œwe need to update CRM every 2 hoursโ€

โ€œwe need to make more callsโ€

โ€œwe need to work harderโ€

โ€œlook how XYZ is performingโ€

โ€œwe canโ€™t share the pricing till we know thereโ€™s a budgeted projectโ€

Sounds familiar! A.K.A: lots of demands, zero direction as to HOW.
Am I misunderstanding you?

All I have to say is, you're selling to sellers, so...might want to start with a discovery question instead of an assumption.

Has massive growth ever led to mental breakdown? I have been hustling since 17 years old chasing to strive for success doing odd jobs and unintentionally ended up with Edtech K12 Sales as my first official sales job - A toxic culture with no employee respect eventually me to switch after 18 months. Since reps in Edtech are highly valued, had no option but to continue in Edtech sales. This time it was higher education segment, things looked good in the first few month but slowly it started adapting methodologies like the old Edtech since the management was changed. I decided to move out and switch to B2B SaaS. After 13 months of learning & success, my aspirations werenโ€™t matching with the growth vision shared by my manager and ended up being desperate to switch. Got to a AM-Inside Sales role with a 50% hike. Guess what? It led to my mental break down since the culture is pathetic. In entire journey, all challenges never affected my performance but l am losing the spark to glow and hustle eventually. While I plan to switch, a token of guilt is still alive. The experiences have made me far better and strong as a BDR but blank about the next steps in my career. Thanks for reading. Do share your thoughts.
