Description

Sales manager coaching has the single biggest impact on salesperson effectiveness. Unfortunately, sales manager coaching is at an all-time low, resulting in as much as 85% of sales skills never being used to drive sales performance. Why are the majority of sales managers ill-prepared to coach and support salespeople?
 

Our research shows there are three main barriers to sales manager coaching, which we call the three "NOs": No Coaching Skills, No Time to Coach, and No Motivation to Coach. This webcast will describe the three "NOs" and what you can do to overcome them. 

As a result of attending this session, you will:

 

  • Understand the impact sales manager coaching has on performance
  • Learn a simple, but not simplistic, model for coaching salespeople
  • Learn techniques for creating brief coaching events
  • Learn how to motivate managers to engage in coaching activities
