Sales Management Training that Works

“Originally, we launched a RFP to identify a solution selling and sales management training program provider to improve the skills of the sales teams in our global distributor network.

LSA Global challenged our thought process and helped us focus on the systemic factors that create a high performance sales environment first, before we focused on the more symptomatic needs of sales leadership skills training.

Their strategic approach and sales leadership programs are top notch.”

Kim Chaumillon | VP Global Talent Management | Trimble, Inc.

“This sales leadership philosophy and approach helped me find my voice as an account manager. It’s helped me consistently exceed both my professional and quota goals.

Blake Schlukbier | Global Sales Account Manager | Red Hat

“The sales management and leadership training was phenomenal. The facilitator was excellent and exceeded expectations.  Just want we needed to take our sales team to the next level.

Paul Zytnik | General Manager | Duncan Parnell

Sales Leadership Excellence Is Critical to Drive Revenue
Based upon the assumption that front-line sales managers have the single greatest impact on a sales rep’s engagement and performance, this proven sales manager training program helps sales leaders to accelerate performance and change.

Our sales research found that sales reps who receive consistent and frequent sales coaching outperform their peers 4-to-1 in terms of sales quota attainment.

Unfortunately, we also know from sales leader simulation assessment data that most sales managers lack the leadership capability or time to effectively lead, manage, and coach their sales team.  The implications are massive.  CSO Insights reports that nearly half of salespeople don’t hit their sales quotas.

Description
Every high performing sales organization has one thing in common — they develop and effectively coach their sales people.

They understand that to truly change behavior they must do more than create incentive plans, send their people to business sales training classes, and send out report cards at the end of the month.

Effective sales managers are effective sales leaders and coaches.

This sales management training program provides sales leaders and sales managers with a proven methodology and the associated skills required to move the needle and double their bandwidth by becoming a strategic sales leader and coach.

Sales Leadership Focus Areas

  • Sales desire
  • Sales productivity
  • Sales capability

  • Learn a unique four-dimensional approach to measuring performance to help double your leadership bandwidth:

    — Sales productivity

LSA Global has been a great partner in helping us move toward being “the leading developer of talent in the service performance management industry.”

I have engaged LSA to help develop best-in-class programs in the areas of: Executive On-boarding, Manager Training, Sales Training and Coaching, Employee Engagement, and Instructional Design.

They have consistently met or exceeded my (very) high expectations and are always responsive to my needs to increase performance, engagement, customer satisfaction, and sales growth.

From beginning to end, LSA was as invested in making sure the program succeeded as we were. They not only met the needs of our sales organization, but they helped us meet our very tight launch deadline.

The consultant operated with the sense of urgency necessary to ensure that we were ready to roll the business sales training program in a way that made sense.

Without their dedication and sales expertise we would not have been able to launch the program with the success that we did. Thank you LSA for being a valued business partner!

LSA’s customized Effective Presentation Skills program has helped us elevate our presentation skills to the next level. I personally now have a much greater self-awareness of my presentation skills and can leverage my strengths while working to improve upon other areas.

Originally, we launched a RFP to partner with a sales training provider to improve the sales skills of our global distributor network.

LSA Global challenged our thinking by suggesting we focus on the systemic sales strategy, culture, and talent factors that create sales success before we invested in the more symptomatic needs of sales skills and knowledge.

LSA Global identified the critical strategic actions to improve overall sales performance and then designed and delivered world class business sales training across the globe to help increase revenue and margin.

I’m so happy we took a more strategic approach to sales performance with LSA.  Thank you for making this fit our culture.

What a refreshing change from the half-baked psycho-babble you normally get from training and consulting organizations. LSA gives you the practical and results-oriented assistance you need to define and reach your goals.

Their leadership, management, and sales expertise has been invaluable.  They think strategically and provide a results driven plan – not just a temporary fix.

They are great to work with, and even more importantly, they “get it!”

David Fiano

I would recommend them to any sales leader who wants to drive sales performance.
