The Bosshole® Chronicles Real Good Ventures

We are often joined by Subject Matter Experts who are still very much students of their craft.  Jeff Blair is one such person when it comes to the study of leadership and the pursuit of his growth as a leader.  We get to explore those pursuits with Jeff in this episode and are happy to share it with our amazing audience.

Our friend Ted Olson "stopped by" the TBC studio to update us on his book "Feel Good About Selling" which published in the Fall of 2022.   Sales managers would do well to adopt Ted's approach and keep themselves out of the SalesBosshole® Zone.   It's how selling should have been done all along - and it's not too late to apply these proven principles.
