Management and Leadership Development Program-Improving Sales Team Performance
When it comes to improving your sales team’s performance, providing field support can often feel muddled and unproductive. If the manager turns it into a “let-me-show-you-how-it’s-done” event without incorporating proper coaching, the salesperson learns very little. The result of this behavior can de-motivate a salesperson if he attributes the manager’s success on the call to his “sales manager” status or authority. Or, if the sales manager isn’t successful, the salesperson is thinking, “If you can’t sell this stuff, what chance do I have?” Join us for this workshop to develop a five-step process for helping salespeople improve their performance when working with them in the field.

Transactional Analysis (TA) theory defines three ego states that influence our behavior: Parent, Adult, and Child. Think of these ego states as internal memory banks where childhood impressions, teachings, and associated feelings are stored. Being able to identify which of the ego states your customers are operating from and working to keep your own ego states in check is essential for effective understanding and communication.
