Mike is joined by sales management expert and coach (former golf pro and top-ranked salesperson), Matt Ferguson for a wide-ranging conversation covering….

  • The fact that almost every sales manager they know feels overwhelmed, overworked, under-appreciated and under-supported
  • Almost 90% of sales leaders say they received ZERO training for their current role
  • Why the transition from top-producing individual contributor into sales manager is so difficult
  • How the phrase “you are who you hang out with” is not just wise advice for picking your friends, but also applies to salespeople targeting the right accounts to pursue for new business
  • The importance of smart talent management and danger of managers constantly living in what Matt refers to as “The Mess”
