Description
Which business owner or salesperson doesn’t want sales success that is sustainable? Yet all too often, success in sales is seen as a one-off, an unexpected outcome, or, even worse, it is built on shoddy foundations. Hit-and-miss sales results create uncertainty within a business. They stunt growth and make it difficult to attract and retain top talent. In this session, with a particular focus on account management, we will discuss the power of principles in achieving sustainable success in sales; we will explore the central role of the principle of stewardship in achieving stellar sales results year after year; and we will outline how to put stewardship into practice in serving your customers better to achieve sustainable success for your business.
Presenter Tom English says: “Stewardship is essentially about self-governance: applying care to self, relationships, and contributions in order to achieve sustainable success. It is akin to leading like a gardener: planting, nurturing, watering and weeding wherever necessary.”
Tom defines sustainable success by three key criteria:
- Alignment with values
- Consistency in results
- Durability (avoiding self-sabotage and overcoming external challenges)
He says: “The application of stewardship starts with the individual and has a positive, often outsize, impact on the organisation they work for and the customers they serve.”
