Step Into Sales Leadership with Clarity
Develop the skills and perspective to lead sales teams effectively while maintaining the relationships that matter
Back to HomeWhat This Workshop Provides
The Sales Leadership Workshop prepares you for the transition from individual contributor to team leader, helping you develop an approach that fits your values.
Leadership Perspective
You'll develop understanding of what sales leadership involves and how to approach it in ways that support both team performance and individual development.
Practical Management Skills
You'll learn approaches to coaching, performance management, pipeline oversight, and the other practical aspects of leading a sales team effectively.
Your Leadership Style
You'll develop a leadership approach appropriate for sales environments that aligns with your values and personality. Effective leadership doesn't require you to adopt an inauthentic persona.
The Transition to Leadership
Moving into sales leadership brings new responsibilities and challenges that require different skills than individual selling.
Shifting from Doer to Coach
As an individual contributor, you succeeded through your own efforts. As a leader, your success depends on helping others succeed. This shift in focus can feel uncomfortable initially, especially when you see team members struggling with situations you could handle yourself. Learning when to step in and when to let team members work through challenges is a delicate balance.
Managing Performance Expectations
You're now responsible for team results, not just your own numbers. This means addressing performance issues, having difficult conversations, and balancing support with accountability. Many new leaders find this aspect challenging, particularly when they value relationships and want to be liked by their team.
Understanding Leadership Responsibilities
Sales leadership involves pipeline management, forecasting, territory planning, and other operational aspects that may be unfamiliar. Without clear frameworks for these responsibilities, it's easy to feel overwhelmed or uncertain about priorities. You're also now representing your team to upper management, which requires new communication skills.
Developing Your Leadership Identity
You've likely seen various leadership styles, some more effective than others. Figuring out what kind of leader you want to be while meeting organizational expectations requires thoughtful consideration. You want to lead in ways that feel authentic while also being effective in driving results.
These challenges are normal parts of the transition to leadership. The Sales Leadership Workshop addresses each of these areas, helping you develop approaches that work for you and your team.
Building Your Leadership Foundation
This workshop provides frameworks and practice opportunities to help you develop effective sales leadership skills.
Sales Team Coaching Approaches
You'll learn practical coaching methods appropriate for sales environments. This includes understanding when and how to provide guidance, how to help team members develop their skills, and how to give feedback that helps rather than discourages. The focus is on coaching approaches that support development while maintaining accountability for results.
Performance Management Skills
You'll develop understanding of how to assess performance, set appropriate expectations, and address issues constructively. This includes learning to have difficult conversations while maintaining relationships, how to document performance concerns properly, and when to escalate issues. The workshop addresses the emotional aspects of performance management alongside the practical elements.
Pipeline and Territory Management
You'll learn approaches to overseeing team pipelines, managing territories effectively, and creating forecasts that are both realistic and supportive of business needs. This includes understanding how to spot pipeline health issues, how to allocate resources appropriately, and how to use data to inform decisions without becoming overly numbers-focused.
Sales Enablement and Development
You'll explore how to support your team's ongoing development, including identifying training needs, providing resources, and creating opportunities for skill building. This encompasses both formal development activities and the everyday coaching that helps team members grow. The workshop addresses how to balance development focus with performance expectations.
Building Sales Culture
You'll learn about creating team culture that supports both results and relationships. This includes approaches to motivation and recognition that feel genuine, how to handle team dynamics, and how to create an environment where people want to succeed. The focus is on building culture through your daily actions rather than through programs or initiatives.
Leadership Decision-Making
You'll develop frameworks for making leadership decisions, including how to gather input appropriately, when to make autonomous decisions, and how to communicate decisions effectively. This includes learning to balance competing priorities, manage stakeholder expectations, and make choices that align with both business needs and team welfare.
Your Workshop Experience
This workshop creates space to explore leadership challenges and develop your approach through collaborative exercises and guidance.
Collaborative Learning Environment
You'll work with other sales professionals who are also preparing for or new to leadership roles. This creates opportunities to explore challenges together, learn from different perspectives, and build relationships with peers facing similar transitions.
The collaborative nature of the workshop helps you see that leadership challenges are normal and that there are multiple effective approaches to common situations.
Simulated Leadership Scenarios
You'll work through realistic leadership situations including performance conversations, pipeline reviews, coaching sessions, and other common leadership responsibilities. These exercises provide practice in a supportive environment where you can try different approaches.
The scenarios are designed to surface the kinds of decisions and challenges you'll face as a leader, helping you develop judgment and confidence.
Framework Development
Rather than prescribing a single leadership approach, the workshop helps you develop frameworks you can adapt to your specific context. You'll learn principles and approaches that you can adjust based on your personality, your team, and your organizational environment.
This approach recognizes that effective leadership looks different in different contexts and that you need tools you can adapt rather than rigid scripts to follow.
Experienced Facilitation
Workshop facilitators bring sales leadership experience and understand the challenges of the transition. They provide guidance, share perspectives from their own experience, and help you think through leadership situations you're facing or anticipating.
The facilitation style emphasizes support and development rather than criticism, creating space for you to explore your leadership approach.
What participants value: Many workshop participants appreciate the opportunity to explore leadership challenges in a supportive environment before or early in their leadership roles. The combination of frameworks, practice, and peer learning helps build confidence in approaching leadership responsibilities.
