Want Successful Sales Leadership? Improve your Goal Achievement Results
#SalesChats: Episode 42

Sales leadership is a vital part of a sales function. It remains one of the most difficult positions in the company. Leanne Hoagland-Smith discusses sales leadership in this #SalesChat, hosted by John Golden and Martha Neumeister.

Hoagland-Smith explains:

• Why it’s important to have our own personal success in order to achieve professional success
• The lack of emotion involved, and the tendency to not connect emotions to opportunities, which results in a disconnect between salesperson and prospect
• The culture surrounding selling, and how a sales leader might struggle to manage a top performer
• Advice for setting yearly goals, including using “SMART” criteria that are written, actionable, present tense, and associated with an emotion
• How to measure goals on an ongoing basis, and utilizing self-assessment and self-reporting to continually improve
• Examples of what the best sales leaders do in order to achieve their goals and coach their clients
• The importance of asking the sales staff, “what do you need from me?”
• How to coach people who didn’t make their goals, and the importance of using emotional intelligence in this process
• Relationships, and their importance between the sales manager and salesperson, salesperson and prospect, and others
