Sales Management Training Program for Sales Leaders LSA Global

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.

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!”
