From Lone Wolf to Team Player | Dave Mackay

The Insiders

It’s true that we are often our own biggest critic, and it’s easy to pick at parts of yourself that are less than perfect. But where the real challenge lies, is to be genuinely receptive of your own self-reflections, to learn from your past mistakes and to use them to guide your future successes.

Dave Mackay (Sales Director, sa.global) joined Richard in the podcast studio for this candid and honest discussion about:

  • Advocating for a culture of trust and understanding between departments, for the good of the business as a whole 
  • The benefits of a sales career, if you’re willing to invest time in yourself to reap the rewards 
  • Recognising traits in yourself that could be harmful to your future success – and more importantly, how to turn them around.

“There's more of a requirement for people that really want to become sales professionals to be absolute self-starters and self-learners - because there isn't that framework out there. So if you want to do it, go and do it, because the rewards and the opportunities and what sales gives back are just unbelievable.” - Dave Mackay
