Transforming Sales Leadership Through Coaching

Sales management is broken. In a world where 80% of sales managers lack formal training, most leaders spend their days fighting fires rather than developing people. The fundamental problem? Top salespeople get promoted to management based on selling skills, not leadership abilities. Without proper training, they default to what they know - selling - rather than mastering the distinct art of coaching others to sell. This creates a critical gap between knowing what teams should do and having the tactical skills to develop them effectively. The difference between managing and coaching is profound. Management maintains the status quo through control and direction. Coaching creates new possibilities through collaboration and inquiry. A coach believes "the question is the answer," helping people tap into their inner wisdom rather than prescribing solutions. This shift requires overcoming significant barriers, including the confidentiality challenge - employees rarely feel safe being vulnerable with the person who determines their compensation.
