Is Experience The Best Teacher?
It’s interesting to consider the wisdom of some expressions in common use these days. How about the phrase “Experience is the best teacher?” Or how about this gem, “What you don’t know won’t hurt you?” And what about, “He or she is a born sales person” or “Ignorance is bliss”?

Who walks into the classroom to put her bag on the peg? Who finds the teacher to explain why little Katie did not do her homework? Not a great look if little Katie is 14 years old! And yet some parents are not able to let go. They jump in to fix every problem a child has. Your child will be safe but is she learning anything about resilience?

Why Salespeople Fail to Make Needed Changes
If your salespeople are going through any kind of up-to-date sales training or coaching, then they know they're supposed to ask questions and resist presenting company or product features and benefits.
