Sales Managers and other leaders have the toughest job in the organization. You have to build a team and get results through others, and the ultimate responsibility for the success or failure of the mission is on your shoulders.
Unfortunately, if you want a better team, it’s up to you to become a better leader. Finding, choosing, and onboarding new team members can be challenging, especially if you don’t do it very often.
Without micromanaging, you are required to motivate, lead, and develop the talent on your team, but who is helping, coaching, and holding you accountable to your goals?
