Domains of Sales Leadership:

  • Sharpens/Clarifies/Magnifies Focus on Markets & Clients [situations, aspirations, implications, morals, constraints]:
    - Which situations or general problems dominate the mind of your clients - are those "mind-focusing" situations related to or caused by their business, industry or company/organization, the future of the economy, threat of military or political actions, or social pressures?


  • Espouse/Deploy/Spawn Technology-smart Solutions [cost-effective, efficient, reliable, appropriate, elegant and precise, edifying and encouraging, empowering and enhancing]:
    - How do you look at or conceive of technology - is it part of your "elegant" [neat, simple, precise] solution?
    - Why do you seek to use technology in your solution - is it to provide clear benefits and pay-offs for your client?


  • Surveys/Maps/Describes Competitive Landscapes [eager/enthusiastic for new knowledge, invests/commits time to learning, more questions than dictates]:
    - Remember that the map is not the territory - do you update and revise your "sketches" of your industry, marketplaces, profession, community, organization, division/department?
    - Are your landscapes content-heavy and knowledge-rich - do you use strategy, concept or mind maps, models, descriptive narratives, charts, tables, etc.


  • Initiates/Promotes/Leads Product & Service Evolutions [energize, empower and enhance the process of discovery, creation, development, and promotion of fresh, new, value-added products and services]:

    - Effectively improves your knowledge base(s)
    - Learn how to add power, scope and competence to your skills portfolio
