    Ever had to check yourself before giving feedback? Is your way actually the right way, or just the way you'd do it.

    Leaders have to foster creativity and growth in others but sometimes things just have to be done the way you say. Getting the balance right is hard so we've brought in an expert.

    Ben Pearce has seen it all, and now spends his time helping other people communicate in the best way - from talkative techies to silent specialists, he's seen what works and what doesn't.

Great PreSales topics, for newcomers to the Industry

As a follower of Don C. I took an interest to this new podcast channel. After practicing PreSales for 20+ years, I found the topic of great value for new professionals wanting to enter the PreSales areas. This was made clear in the early portion of their discussion when followers & listeners demographics where discussed.

The topic is very general in terms of industry best practices, and does not deep dive into any areas of expertise at least for the moment.

I can see this effort going places for career pivots or simply sales professionals that want to take their skills to the next level.

Lot’s of potential here! Stay tuned!
